Blueberry Biscuits
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 ounces blueberries
1 cup cold milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
5 tablespoons butter
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
For the optional glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 cup water
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 450°F. It’s time to get that oven nice and toasty for our biscuit adventure!
In a large bowl, let’s work some magic by combining the salt, sugar, flour, and baking powder. Give them a good mix until they’re all cozy and well incorporated.
Add the cold milk and blueberries to the dry ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined. It’s like creating a fluffy cloud of biscuit goodness!
Now, it’s time to bring in the buttery goodness. Cut the cold butter into pieces and evenly distribute them over the biscuit dough.
Fold and knead the dough gently until the butter is spread evenly throughout. Repeat this process until all the butter pieces are fully incorporated – this is where the magic happens!
Place the dough on a floured surface and roll it out to a thickness of about 1/4 to 1/8 inches. It’s like crafting a canvas of biscuit perfection!
Using a biscuit cutter, cut out approximately 6 biscuits from the dough. Don’t be afraid to get creative with your shapes – after all, variety is the spice of life!
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for around 8-12 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and fluffy.
While the biscuits are baking, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the microwave and brush it gently on top of the hot biscuits. This step adds an extra layer of buttery goodness that’ll take your biscuits to the next level.
If you’re feeling fancy, whip up a quick glaze by combining powdered sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and water. Drizzle it over the biscuits for a sweet finishing touch.
Trust me when I say that these Blueberry Biscuits will become a delightful addition to your breakfast or brunch routine. The combination of sweet blueberries and buttery biscuit is simply irresistible. So go ahead, save this recipe, and share the joy of these blissful biscuits with your loved ones. Happy baking!
