Have you ever heard of Blueberry Grunt? It is a cobbler that you cook on top of the stove instead of in the oven. The reason it was named “Grunt” is because the blueberries make a grunt sound while boiling underneath the steamed biscuits. Old Fashion Blueberry Grunt can even be made on a campfire. All that delicious blueberry mixture soaks into the steamed biscuits that are dropped on top. This is the most delicious & moist blueberry dessert and is cooked in 15 minutes on top of the stove!

  1. A Mennonite friend, in Pennsylvania, once made a “Peach Grunt”, which was delectable-but the peaches, of course, made more of a smacking sound, whilst boiling underneath the biscuit.

  22. Ha! Love how you named this! And it’s great to have a “baked” good that you use the stove instead of the oven for on hot days like we’ve had so many of this summer.
