I came up with this when we lived in the Seattle area. My kids would pick wild blakberries and this was their favorite way of preparation.

Ingredients

  • About 1 quart blackberries, picked over and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup water
  • About 1 cup sugar, depending on how tart the berries are
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups Original Bisquick
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Sweetened whipped cream or Cool Whip

Directions

Put berries with water in large stainless steel pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until berries give out thier juice. Add sugar; stir in well, then cook for 5 minutes. Lower heat until berries are just simmering. Meanwhile, combine Bisquick, milk and the 1 tablespoon sugar; mix well. Drop dumplings by tablespoon onto simmering berries. Cover and cook 15 minutes. Serve dumplings with berries ladled over and top with whipped cream or thawed Cool Whip.
