Dumplings For Fruit Grandmas Blueberry Dumplings Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Rub in lard with fingers. Stir in milk to make a soft dough.
• In a deep skillet, boil water. Reduce heat to a simmer and stir in sugar until dissolved. Stir in blueberries. Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls into simmering blueberry syrup. Cover and simmer 10 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• 1. NOTE: These dumplings can be made with any fruit you choose. Try mixed frozen fruits, peaches, or raspberries. The recipe remains the same except use a different fruit.
• 2. BLUEBERRIES: In a large pot place washed berries, water, sugar, and lemon juice. Bring this to a boil. Mix cornstarch with 1 tablespoon more water. Slowly stir cornstarch and water mixture into boiling mixture. Cook on low for a few minutes (to thicken) while preparing dumplings. Stir fruit occasionally.
• 3. DUMPLINGS: Stir together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in medium size bowl. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in milk to make a soft dough. Drop dough by spoonfuls into boiling fruit (the fruit must be boiling or the dumplings will fail). Do not stir the dumplings. They should be sitting at the top of the pot cooking.
• 4. This is the most important step in making the dumplings. Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and cook slowly for 20 minutes. Do not remove the lid before 20 minutes have passed or dumplings will fail. When 20 minutes have passed remove pot cover and serve hot dumplings with ice cream or whipped cream.

Steps:

• Place blackberries, sugar, water, butter, and cinnamon in a large saucepan. Cook and stir occasionally over medium heat until have started to break down and form a sauce, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir the egg yolk into the crumbs. Add the milk a tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork, until the flour mixture is moistened. Do not add more milk than you need: when you squeeze a handful of the moistened pastry mixture, it should form a ball. Divide the dough in half and shape into balls.
• Roll one ball into a 1/4-inch thick round, like a pie crust. Using a floured knife cut lengthwise 2 to 3 inch wide strips of dough. Repeat with the second ball of dough.
• Holding each strip of dough over the boiling blackberries pinch off 4-inch lengths and drop into the berries. Repeat until all the dough has been used. Cook the dumplings over medium heat for 15 minutes. You may push the dumplings down into the juice but do not stir until they are fully cooked or they will clump together.

Steps:

• Cream butter with sugar.
• Add eggs, stirring hard.
• Add cottage cheese and flour.
• Stir well and gradually add enough milk to make a soft dough.
• Roll out on floured board (not too thin), and cut in squares. Into each square put a blue plum, apricot or sweet cherries. Pinch corners together and roll into a ball.
• Boil dumplings in a large pot filled with rapidly boiling, salted water for 10-12 minutes.
• Serve with melted butter and a mixture of sugar and cinnamon.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, combine the cider and tapioca; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the blueberries and brown sugar. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, uncovered; stirring occasionally. Stir in almond extract; continue simmering., For dumplings, in a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. In a small bowl, beat the egg, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened (batter will be stiff)., Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto simmering blueberry mixture. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in dumplings comes out clean (do not lift lid while simmering)., In a small bowl, beat cream and syrup until soft peaks form. Spoon blueberry mixture into serving bowls; top with dumplings. Serve with maple cream.

Steps:

• Mix flour and shortening together in a bowl until it resembles cornmeal.
• Slightly beat egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Add to flour mixture and stir to form a ball of dough. Place onto a floured surface; knead and roll as thin as possible using a floured rolling pin. Let dough stand for 2 hours.
• Place chicken into a large pot and add water to just cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and continue to boil until chicken is no longer pink in the center and meat falls off of the bone, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove chicken from the pot; strain broth and return to the pot. Add 2 cups water and bouillon. Remove meat from bones and return to broth. Add celery, carrots, and onion. Bring to a boil; continue to boil for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut dough into strips, approximately 1-inch wide. Tear strips and drop into boiling broth. Continue to boil for 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 7x11 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar. Cut in butter. Pour in milk and stir to form a dough. Turn out onto a well-floured surface and roll out. Cut into 6 - 6 inch squares.
• Place a whole apple in the center of each square. Fill the core with blueberries. Drizzle with maple syrup. Pull up corners of dough and pinch edges together to seal. Place dumplings in prepared pan and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Combine remaining maple syrup with enough water to pour over dumplings to a 1 inch depth in dish. Submerge remaining blueberries and apple peelings with dried orange peel in liquid.
• Bake in preheated oven 45 minutes, basting as necessary, until crisp and browned. Serve warm with sauce.

Steps:

• 1. Clean the blueberries and put in a mixing bowl. Add one cup of sugar to them and stir gently. Now I taste to see if they are sweet enough or tart. I like mine sweet so sometimes may add more sugar.
• 2. I flour the surface then take the packaged crust out and mead together then keep in a ball. I pinch off some and then roll out into a circle large enough for a spoon full of berries. The dough needs to be thin.
• 3. Pull up like a pouch and pinch the sides together on top.
• 4. Place in a 9x13 baking dish or the size you wish to make. This should yield you 15 dumplings. Add very carefully not to over fill 1/4 cup of water around the dumplings in bottom of the dish. Sprinkle over the top of each the 2Tlbs. of sugar all around the dish. Make sure each dumpling has some sugar on it. Slice a thin slice of butter and place over top each dumpling.
• 5. Have your oven preheat at 325°F and place the pan in the center of oven to allow to slowly cook. It took about 35 minutes for mine to cook. While in the oven check constantly to see they are plenty juicy and try to gently lift some of the juice over the dumplings to keep moist. I only did this once and they came out perfect.
• 6. Place a dumpling in a dish and serve if like with a scoop of ice cream.
• 7. WHILE THE DUMPLINGS ARE COOKING DO NOT ALLOW THE JUCE TO COOK AWAY OR TO LOW. YOU WILL WANT SOME JUICE IN THE DISH TO KEEP THE DUMPLINGS MOIST. YOU MAY NEED TO ADD SOME MORE WATER A LITTLE AT A TIME DURING THE COOKING PROCESS.
