- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
For the Glaze (Optional but Recommended):
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cut in the Butter
Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add Milk and Blueberries
Slowly pour in the cold milk and gently fold in the blueberries. Stir until just combined—do not overmix.
5. Shape the Biscuits
On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter or a knife to cut into rounds or squares.
6. Bake Until Golden
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
7. Prepare the Glaze
While the biscuits bake, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
8. Glaze and Serve
Once the biscuits are out of the oven, let them cool slightly. Drizzle with the glaze and serve warm!
Tips for the Best Sweet Blueberry Biscuits
- Use cold butter to ensure flaky biscuits.
- Do not overmix the dough, or the biscuits may become dense.
- For extra richness, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
