Yield: 6 Servings
Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
2 cups | Whole raspberries or juice |
¾ cup | Sugar |
2 cups | Water |
3 tablespoons | Cornstarch |
1 cup | Flour, all purpose |
5 teaspoons | Baking powder |
3 teaspoons | Sugar |
¼ teaspoon | Salt |
1 cup | Milk |
Bring the first 3 ingredients to a boil. Mix the cornstarch with enough water to make a smooth sauce, then stir it into the hot raspberry mixture and bring to a boil.
Mix together the rest of the ingredients to make a dough, and drop it by the spoonfuls into the boiling raspberry mixture. Cover it with a tight lid and let it boil slowly for 20 minutes. DO NOT UNCOVER it during the boiling period. Serve it with milk.
Variations: Elderberries or other fruit may be used instead of raspberries.
