Ingredients
1 quart frozen blackberries
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2/3 cup milk
Whipped cream (optional ... but necessary if you're from the South!)

Directions
Bring blackberries, 1 cup sugar, lemon extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in large ovenproof Dutch oven; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.
Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, flour, baking powder, 1 tablespoon sugar, and nutmet in a medium bowl; stir in milk just until blended (dough will be thick).
Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto hot blackberry mixture.
