  • Sift the flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt into a medium bowl and mix well.
  • Add the egg, stirring until blended. Add just enough milk to make a stiff batter and mix well.
  • Combine the blackberries, 1 cup sugar, water, and butter in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • Drop the batter 1 spoonful at a time (each spoonful should be 1/6 of the batter) into the boiling blackberry mixture. Cover and simmer 15-20 minutes.

  1. What's not to like about this dish ~ I cut the dumpling ingredients in half but kept the fruit sauce ingredients the same & had a lot of GREAT TASTING, FRUITY SAUCE, which was wonderful! Served mine over frozen vanilla yogurt for a great treat! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe]
     
  2. Ohhhh..... so delicious! Kind of tweaked it a bit after reading the reviews. I was just making this for me and Dh so I was going to make a third of the recipe but then read that people wished there had been more sauce and it ended up getting kind f complicated, so I halved the biscuit mixture and made a full batch of sauce using half blackberries and half strawberries. As I started cooking the dumplings,I realized that I was making way too much for the two of use and ended up only cooking half of the half, so really just a 1/4 of the dumpling mix. Anyway they turned out so delicious! I used buttermilk and would again and next time I think I would reduce the sugar by about 1/4. Served this with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was a great way to taste summer on a cold winter night. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!
     
  3. I love how easy this was, and how tasty. I rather hated cooking blackberries, I love eating them fresh, but this recipe was definitely worth it. The recipe was not too sweet, and I look forward to making it again.
     
  4. Oh the memories this brings back! A dessert almost identical to this has a long history in our family and is still enjoyed to this day. I made this as written which was to everyone's delight. Thanks for the post.
     
  5. Looked great on the table for company. Served with homemade vanilla bean ice cream, and I did add a bit of lemon zest, nutmeg (tiny bit) and ginger to the dumplings to give them some oomph, and it was delicious! Will definitely make this again. Would be great over buttermilk biscuits too. Thanks!
