Blueberry Grunt
- Stewed Fruit
- 2 pints fresh blueberries, picked over for stems
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons dry tapioca
- Dumpling Topping
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup cold milk
- 1 large egg
- Coat the slow cooker with butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray or grease with butter.
- In the slow cooker, combine the blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, water, and tapioca; stir gently to coat the berries.
- Cover and cook on LOW for about 5 hours or until the berries have formed a thick sauce.
- To make the topping, whisk together the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
- Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- In a small bowl, beat the milk and egg together; stir into flour mixture with a few strokes to form a soft dough.
- Turn the cooker temperature to HIGH and remove the lid.
- Drop the dough by heaping tablespoons on top of the hot blueberries.
- Cover and cook about 30 minutes until the topping is firm and a pick comes out clean (the topping will not brown).
- Turn the cooker off, remove the lid, and let the grunt rest for 10 minutes.
- Spoon into individual bowls and serve with heavy cream.
