Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3/4 cup milk (whole or 2%)

Add-ins

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Add the milk: Gradually pour in the milk and stir gently with a fork just until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits flaky.
  3. Fold in blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the dough, being careful not to crush them to avoid turning the dough purple.
  4. Shape and bake: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut into biscuits using a round cutter or knife and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
  5. Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm with butter, jam, or honey.

Notes

  • Use cold butter and minimal mixing for flaky biscuits.
  • If fresh blueberries are not available, frozen blueberries can be used but do not thaw them before adding.
  • To add a touch of sweetness, brush the tops with a little milk and sprinkle sugar before baking.
  • Biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
