Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, not thawed)

Optional Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt until well combined.

3. Cut in the Butter:

Add the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Add Wet Ingredients:

Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk and vanilla. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined.

5. Fold in Blueberries:

Carefully fold in the blueberries, being gentle not to crush them. Overmixing can turn the dough purple and affect texture.

6. Shape and Cut:

Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Gently pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a round cutter to cut out biscuits, reforming dough scraps as needed.

7. Bake:

Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

8. Glaze (Optional):

Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to create a glaze. Drizzle over slightly cooled biscuits.

Tips & Variations

  • Frozen Blueberries Tip: If using frozen berries, don’t thaw before folding into the dough.
  • Extra Flavor: Add a dash of lemon zest for brightness.
  • Crunchy Top: Brush tops with cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar before baking.
