Ingredients:
For the Biscuits:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cold milk
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons cold or frozen butter
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 ounces blueberries (fresh or dried)
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a grater or pastry cutter, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 2: Add the Blueberries
Gently fold the blueberries into the dry mixture. If using fresh blueberries, be careful not to crush them.
Step 3: Mix and Shape the Dough
Pour in the cold milk and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead a few times before patting it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
Step 4: Cut and Bake
Use a biscuit cutter or a knife to cut the dough into rounds or squares. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 5: Make the Glaze
While the biscuits bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk (or heavy cream), and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 6: Glaze and Serve
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, let them cool slightly before drizzling with the glaze. Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Blueberry Biscuits:
- Use frozen butter for extra flaky biscuits.
- If using dried blueberries, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes before adding them to the dough.
- For an extra burst of flavor, add a touch of lemon zest to the glaze.
These Sweet Blueberry Biscuits are the perfect balance of sweet and buttery goodness, making them a must-try for any biscuit lover!
