Ingredients

For the Blueberry Biscuits

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 3/4 cup milk

Make sure to use fresh blueberries for the best flavor!

Instructions

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Cut in Butter

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Blueberries and Milk

Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. Pour in the milk and stir just until combined; do not overmix.

Shape the Biscuits

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter.

Bake

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Serve

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.

Tips for Success

When making blueberry biscuits, it's important to use cold butter. This helps to create the flaky texture that makes biscuits so enjoyable. If your kitchen is warm, consider chilling the butter in the freezer for a few minutes before use to ensure the best results.

Be gentle when mixing the dough. Overworking the mixture can lead to tough biscuits, so mix just until the ingredients are combined. Folding in the blueberries carefully will help preserve their shape and prevent them from breaking apart.

Storage Suggestions

To keep your blueberry biscuits fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you want to keep them longer, consider freezing them. Once baked, let the biscuits cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag.

When you're ready to enjoy them, simply reheat the frozen biscuits in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. This will help restore their flaky texture and make them taste freshly baked.
