For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of shortening. A sprinkle of lemon zest in the dumpling batter adds a bright, citrusy note. If fresh blueberries are not available, frozen blueberries can be used. Do not thaw before using. You may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time. Feel free to experiment with other berries, such as raspberries or blackberries, for a delightful twist.
