🍴KEY INGREDIENTS
- all-purpose flour
- baking powder
- sugar
- butter
- buttermilk
- egg
- fresh blueberries (could use frozen)
- Glaze: powdered sugar and milk
SWAPS
You can use regular whole milk if you don’t have buttermilk. You can also make a buttermilk substitute if you like. We like to make our biscuits with buttermilk and one reason why is the fat content in the milk.
🍽️HOW TO MAKE
You only need one bowl to mix everything in, which is always a plus!
COOKING STEPS
Step 1
Mix flour, baking powder and sugar together with a whisk. Cut in butter in pieces.
Step 2
Beat egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Add to dry ingredients and mix with a spoon. Fold in blueberries.
Step 3
Turn out onto a floured surface and pat to about 1/2 inch thick with your hands. Cut out with a biscuit cutter. Place on a sprayed baking sheet with biscuits touching. Bake in preheated 425-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes until biscuits are brown on top. Add glaze.
⭐TIP
Knead biscuit dough as little as possible and get as many biscuits as possible from the first cutting. Biscuit dough should have some wetness.

❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
If they are hard you over baked them or over worked the dough. Biscuits should be a little wet before going in the oven.
Yes! All flour is different so if you can’t get the dough manageable then definitely add more a little at a time.
STORING AND REHEATING
We store these in a air-tight container and reheat them for about 10 seconds in the microwave.
