Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cups Buttermilk (cold)
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream (for brushing tops)
- 1 tablespoon Coarse sugar (optional, for sprinkling on top)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently fold in the cold buttermilk using a spatula until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, taking care not to crush them too much.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick.
Using a floured biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps, re-pat, and cut more biscuits until the dough is used up.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy warm!
