Cherry Dumplings

Cherry Mixture

• 2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans tart red cherries or about 4-5 cups fresh cherries
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Dumplings

• 3 cups Bisquick baking mix
• 1 1/4 cups milk

Directions

In a large dutch oven, combine tart cherries (including the juice), sugar, water, and cinnamon.
Bring to a boil. (If using fresh cherries, cook until tender.)
In the meantime, mix together the Bisquick baking mix and milk.
When cherries have come to a boil, drop dumplings into cherry mixture by tablespoonfuls until all the dumpling mixture is used.
Lower heat to medium and cook uncovered for 10 minutes, then cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and let stand 20 minutes, covered.
