Ingredients

• 2 bags (16oz each) frozen dark sweet cherries
• 1/3 cup plus 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 cup flour (spooned & leveled)
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• ice cream, for serving (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Combine cherries and 1/3 cup sugar in a large skillet. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium high, simmer rapidly until syrupy, 8 to 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and remaining tablespoon sugar; set aside.

Meanwhile in a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt; gradually stir in milk,mixing just until a wet dough forms.

Reduce heat to medium low. Spoon tablespoons of dough (you should have about 18) over simmering fruit; sprinkle all with cinnamon sugar.

Cover skillet; simmer very gently until dumplings are set and dry to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve warm, with ice cream if desired.
