This Nova Scotia dessert is made by dropping spoonfuls of dough onto simmering blueberries and steaming them under a lid. The whole-wheat dumplings make it a light dessert with less sugar.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cook the Blueberries

15 min

Put the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and a little water in a wide pot and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat until the berries soften and the mixture thickens slightly.

2

Make the Dumpling Dough

10 min

Mix the whole-wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted butter and milk and stir to make a sticky dough.

3

Steam the Dumplings

20 min

Use a spoon to drop pieces of dough onto the simmering fruit, leaving space between them. Cover the pot tightly and cook over low heat without lifting the lid.

4

Serve

Check that the dumplings have risen and are cooked through with a toothpick. Serve hot.

Reminder

Do not lift the lid during cooking; escaping steam can leave the dumplings raw inside. If using frozen blueberries, add them directly to the pot without thawing. Contains wheat (gluten) and dairy.

Kapağı merak edip birkaç kez araladım, hamur topaklarının içi hamur kaldı düzgünce pişmedi; tarifte kapağı hiç açmadan 20 dakika pişirin diye özellikle uyarılmış, ben dinlemedim. İkinci denememde kapağı hiç açmayınca çok daha iyi oldu.

Bu çok yaygın bir hata, her açılışta değerli buhar kaçıyor ve pişirme süresi baştan sayılıyor. İkinci denemenizin işe yaraması tam olarak bu yüzden, kapağı sabırla kapalı tutmak burada her şeyi belirliyor.
