Slump, Grunt, it's all good! I finally got to make this when my niece was here visiting. It came out so delicious. I made it to have with some French Vanilla ice cream and we had a feast eating the whole thing between the 3 of us! The blueberries were sweet because I used the big ones and not the native Maine blueberries, because they aren't out yet, but I will try them with the natives soon! I'm telling ya, you have got to try this! Thank you for posting it for us T. Linda

I love old fashioned recipes like this. This kind of reminded me of blueberry shortcake or dumplings. It was delicious served warm with a scoop of Vanilla Bean ice cream on top!

funny with names, around here this is called Blueberr Grunt, cus of the sound it makes when it's cook, but under any name it is absolutely lucsious!! I used blueberries frozen last summer, 2%milk and didn't want to open a pound of butter for 1 tablespoon so used Becel margarine, worked perfectly. Don had his with whipped cream, i had mine without the dumpling, mmm sooo good!! Thanks!
