Ingredients

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

½ teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed

¾ cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

½ cup powdered sugar

1 ½ tablespoons milk (for glaze)


Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

3. Cut cold butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Pour in milk and vanilla extract. Stir until just combined—do not overmix.

5. Gently fold in blueberries. If using frozen berries, toss in flour first to prevent bleeding.

6. Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Pat into a 1-inch thick round and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or glass.

7. Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 13–16 minutes or until golden on top.

8. While biscuits cool slightly, whisk powdered sugar and milk together to make glaze.

9. Drizzle glaze over warm biscuits and let it set for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Keep your butter cold until the moment you cut it into the flour. This ensures flakiness.

Don’t overwork the dough—gentle hands make tender biscuits.

If you love lemon flavor, add ½ teaspoon of lemon zest to the glaze for a zesty twist.
