Description

Delight in these sweet blueberry biscuits, perfect for breakfast or a cozy snack. Fluffy, buttery, and bursting with juicy blueberries, these biscuits combine a tender crumb with a hint of vanilla sweetness. Baked to golden perfection, they are easy to make with simple ingredients and deliver comforting homemade goodness.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined to ensure consistent flavor and rise.
  3. Cut in the Butter: Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces.
  4. Fold in the Blueberries: Gently toss fresh blueberries into the crumb mixture, taking care not to break the berries to preserve their shape and juiciness inside the biscuits.
  5. Add Wet Ingredients and Form Dough: Pour in the buttermilk and vanilla extract, stirring gently with a spatula until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep biscuits tender and light.
  6. Shape and Cut Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface, fold it over a few times to create layers, then pat into a 1-inch thick round. Use a biscuit cutter or round glass to cut out individual biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet with slight spacing.
  7. Bake to Golden Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the tops are golden brown and biscuits have risen beautifully.
  8. Cool and Enjoy: Allow biscuits to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm for the best flavor and texture experience.

Notes

  • Use cold butter to ensure flaky layers in the biscuits.
  • Handle the blueberries gently to avoid bursting and discoloring the dough.
  • Do not overmix the dough to keep the biscuits tender.
  • Serve the biscuits warm with butter, honey, or jam for enhanced taste.
  • Buttermilk can be substituted with milk plus a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar if necessary.
