Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 c all purpose flour may need additional 1/4 cup for rolling out, or if too sticky
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 5 tbsp butter cold, or frozen and shaved with cheese grater is best
  • 1 c milk
  • 1 c blueberries fresh is best

Biscuit Glaze

Instructions

  • ** Tip, for best results freeze your stick of butter for 1 hour before shaving on a grater. This will result in a fluffier biscuit.
  • Preheat oven to 425 F. In a bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients together. Add cold butter shaved on a cheese grater. Use a pastry cutter to blend and turn the mixture into crumbs.
  • Add milk and stir just enough to incorporate dry ingredients, NO more. Gently fold in blueberries. If dough is too wet you can add a bit extra flour until you achieve a smooth and a bit shaggy dough.
  • Very lightly flour a cutting board. Dump dough out and use the palms of your hands to flatten to become the same thickness all the way across, working it the least amount possible - yields fluffier results. (can use rolling pin but may crush berries.
  • Use a sharp metal biscuit cutter to press out circles, do NOT twist to keep them fluffy. Set on a non stick baking sheet.
  • Bake on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper in a preheated oven at 425 F for 12-15 minutes until insides are no longer wet and tops are golden brown. (timing will depend on how thick they are)
  • As soon as they are fluffy and done remove from oven, off sheet pan and on to a cooling rack so they don't dry out.
  • In a bowl whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice for glaze. Drizzle on top and enjoy.
