Here’s a Sweet Blueberry Biscuit recipe — soft, buttery, and bursting with juicy blueberries. Perfect for breakfast or dessert! 🫐✨
🧁 Ingredients (Makes about 8 biscuits)
For the biscuits:
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (1 stick / 115 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- ¾ cup (180 ml) cold milk or heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (don’t thaw if frozen)
Optional glaze:
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons milk or lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Preheat oven:
- Preheat to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Cut in butter:
- Add cold butter cubes.
- Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the texture looks like coarse crumbs (small pea-sized bits of butter).
- Add milk:
- Pour in milk and gently stir just until dough starts to come together (don’t overmix).
- Add blueberries:
- Gently fold in blueberries — try not to crush them too much.
- Shape biscuits:
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface.
- Pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle and cut into rounds or squares.
- Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake:
- Bake for 14–16 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- Make glaze (optional):
- In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, milk (or lemon juice), and vanilla until smooth.
- Drizzle over warm biscuits.
💡 Tips
- Handle the dough gently — overworking makes biscuits tough.
- For extra flavor, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
- Lemon zest in the dough adds a lovely citrusy brightness.
