Equipment

  • large bowl
  • Small bowl
  • rubber spatula
  • wire cooling rack
  • Baking Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups bread flour or all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup cold, cubed salted butter

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 3/4 cup 2% milk or buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1 cup frozen blueberries or fresh blueberries

Lemon Glaze

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Blueberry Biscuits

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  • Mix the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs the size of peas. 
  • In a small bowl, combine the wet ingredients into the bowl. Gradually pour the wet ingredients with the dry and gently mix with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon just until the dough starts to come together. The dough will be sticky and lumpy. 
  • Gently fold in the blueberries. 
  • Using a large spoon, or a 2” ice cream scoop, drop mounds of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave 2 inches of space between each biscuit. 
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are lightly golden on the tops. 

Lemon Glaze

  • While the biscuits are baking, mix lemon juice and powdered sugar together. 
  • Once the biscuits are finished baking, allow them to cool slightly, perhaps on a wire rack or a separate plate. 
  • Using a spoon drizzle the glaze over the biscuits before serving.
