Description

Blueberry Biscuits combine fluffy, buttery biscuits with juicy blueberries and a tangy lemon glaze. They’re the perfect treat for breakfast, brunch, or a snack, offering a sweet and citrusy flavor with every bite.


Ingredients

2 cups All-purpose flour

4 teaspoons Baking powder

1/3 cup Sugar

1 teaspoon Salt

1 cup Cold milk

5 tablespoons Cold or frozen butter, grated or cut into small pieces

3 ounces Fresh or dried blueberries (gently folded into the dough)

1 cup Powdered sugar

1/8 cup Water

1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon Lemon juice


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Grate or cut the cold (or frozen) butter into small pieces. Add it to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to rub the butter in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
  5. Pour in the cold milk and stir gently until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it out to about 1-inch thickness, then cut out biscuits using a round cutter or the rim of a glass.
  7. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  8. While the biscuits are baking, make the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, water, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth.
  9. Let the biscuits cool slightly, then drizzle the glaze generously over the warm biscuits. Serve fresh and enjoy!

Notes

Add a mix of blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries for a berry medley in every bite.

For an extra citrus burst, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the dough.

To make these biscuits vegan, use plant-based butter and dairy-free milk.

Sprinkle a cinnamon sugar topping before baking for a sweet, spiced crust.
