Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour You can substitute with a gluten-free blend if needed.
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder Helps biscuits rise and stay fluffy.
  • 1 tbsp Sugar You can use brown sugar for deeper flavor.
  • 1 tsp Salt Balances sweetness and enhances flavors.
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter Use cold, cubed butter for flaky texture. Margarine can be substituted for dairy-free.
  • 3/4 cup Whole milk Can swap with almond or oat milk for non-dairy.
Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup Fresh blueberries Frozen blueberries work too; do not thaw before baking.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt, stirring well to distribute everything evenly.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Pour in the whole milk and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, taking care not to crush them.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick, and cut out biscuits using a round cutter or simply divide into squares.
Baking
  1. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet with some space between them.
  2. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  3. Let them cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster for best texture. Can freeze unbaked biscuits, bake straight from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.
