For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of bourbon or a dash of almond extract to the blueberry mixture. Ensure your baking powder and baking soda are fresh for the best rise in your dumplings. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an unforgettable dessert experience.

Follow The Directions
01
StepCombine 4 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup white sugar, water, lemon zest, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a Dutch oven; cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and texture is jam-like, 10 to 12 minutes.
02
StepWhisk lemon juice and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth; stir into blueberry mixture. Stir in remaining 4 cups blueberries; cook and stir until heated through, about 1 minute. Remove pot from heat; cover to keep warm.
03
StepCombine buttermilk, butter, and vanilla extract in a measuring cup. Whisk flour, 6 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl; slowly stir in buttermilk mixture until a dough forms. Drop golf ball-sized scoops of dough using a small ice cream scoop or 2 large spoons onto blueberry mixture.
04
StepWrap lid of Dutch oven with a clean kitchen towel to absorb condensation during cooking; cover pot with towel-wrapped lid, keeping towel away from the heat source.
05
StepSimmer grunt until dumplings have doubled in size and a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 16 to 22 minutes.
06
StepWhisk remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over dumplings.

Apr 27, 2025The dumplings were a little too dense for my liking. Next time, I'll try not to overmix the dough.

Apr 20, 2025I was a bit skeptical about making this on the stovetop, but it turned out amazing! The towel trick for the lid is genius.

Apr 15, 2025I used frozen blueberries (against the advice) and it was a little watery, but still tasty. Fresh blueberries are a must!
