Wild blueberries are abundant up here. Wild blueberries have a much more pronounced flavor. I simply clean them and freeze them in freezer bags. Blueberry Grunt is a very old recipe and can be found in many of the older cookbooks. It is basically berries baked with a sweet dumpling topping, but still a delicious dessert.
4 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen 1 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup water 1/2 tsp. lemon juice 2 cups flour 1/4 cup sugar 2 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 2 tbsp. butter 1 cup milk
In a saucepan, combine the berries, sugar, water and lemon juice. Heat to boiling and reduce to a simmer.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter. Add the milk, all at once and mix only until moistened.
Drop by spoonfuls into the simmering berries. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Do not lift the lid. Serve warm with whipped cream, cream, or ice-cream.
Yield: 6-8 servings
