prep time 10 Min
cook time 10 Min
method Stove Top
yield 3 to 4

Ingredients

  • 3 cups blackberries
  • 1-1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • DUMPLINGS:
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup milk

How To Make blackberry slump

  • Step 1
    In a large saucepan with a lid, combine blackberries, water, lemon zest, lemon juice and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, blend flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl. Using your hands or a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and mix until ingredients are just moistened. Do not overmix.
  • Step 3
    Drop 6 equal spoonfuls of dough into simmering berry sauce. Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes or until dumplings are done. DO NOT lift the lid.
  • Step 4
    Spoon dumplings and sauce into serving bowls and serve hot.
