Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 12 Biscuits

Ingredients
  

Biscuits
  • 2 Cups All-purpose Flour (I used King Arthur)
  • 1 TBSP Baking Powder
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • Cup White Sugar
  • ½ Cup (8 tbsp) Salted Butter, cold
  • 1 Cup Fresh Blueberries
  • 1 Cup Buttermilk
Glaze
  • ½ Cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Half-and-half
  • ½ tsp Vanilla 

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture. Make sure flour looks like coarse crumbles + butter chunks are flat.
  3. Mix fresh blueberries into the flour mixture. 
  4. Add in the buttermilk and stir in gently till combined.
  5. Fold-out dough onto a lightly floured surface. With flour-dusted hands, pat dough out into a rectangle. Fold the dough into thirds, stacking the dough into three layers. (Make sure you flour between each layer if the dough is wet).
  6. Pat dough out until about 3/4 inch thick. Using a 2 1/2 - 3 inch circle cutter, gently cut out biscuits. DO NOT TWIST cutter, simply press down firmly.
  7. Place the biscuit dough onto a cast iron pan. Place 1 - 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden.
GLAZE
  1. Combine powdered sugar, vanilla, and half-and-half into a small bowl, mixing till smooth.
  2. Once your biscuits have slightly cooled, drizzle over the tops! (If you want your biscuits swimming in the glaze, I suggest doubling the Glaze portion)
