Fluffy Blueberry Biscuits

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk (plus more if needed)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • Coarse sugar for topping (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. Cut in butter: Add cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the buttermilk and vanilla extract (if using). Gently mix until a shaggy dough forms—do not overmix.
  5. Fold in blueberries: Carefully fold in the blueberries to avoid squishing them.
  6. Shape biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently pat into a 1-inch thick round. Use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut out rounds.
  7. Arrange and bake: Place biscuits on the baking sheet. Sprinkle tops with coarse sugar if desired. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Serve warm with butter, honey, or a drizzle of glaze!
