i found a recipe for strawberry drop dumplings. it's similar to a crumble or crisp or cobbler or you get the idea. i had some strawberries at home but not enough so i mixed some blueberries in it. the blueberries were so tiny. in the end it turned out to be tasty. the little blueberries attached themselves to the dumpling dough. it kind had a caviar consistency.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1 pint (about 2 cups) strawberries, hulled and rinsed
1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation:
In a saucepan, combine 1/3 cup sugar and the water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, the 2 tablespoons sugar, the baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly. Add milk and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Place strawberries in a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish; pour hot sugar mixture over strawberries. Immediately drop dough evenly in 8 to 10 spoonfuls over strawberries. Sprinkle dumplings with the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar (and a little cinnamon, if desired). Bake at 450° for 25 to 30 minutes, or until dumplings are lightly browned. Serve hot with whipped topping or ice cream, if desired.
Makes 4 to 5 servings.
