Sweet Blueberry Biscuits combine tender, flaky biscuits with juicy blueberries, topped with a vanilla glaze for a perfect breakfast or sweet treat.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup cold milk

1/3 cup granulated sugar

5 tablespoons butter (cold or frozen)

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

3 ounces blueberries (fresh or dried)

For the glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

1/8 cup water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  2. Add cold milk and blueberries to dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  3. Freeze one stick of butter for about one hour. Break frozen butter into small chunks and distribute evenly over the dough. Gently fold and knead lightly until butter is evenly incorporated.
  4. Transfer dough to floured surface and roll out to 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Cut out about six biscuits with a biscuit cutter.
  5. Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake 7 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
  6. While baking, melt 1 tablespoon butter. In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, water, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth to make the glaze.
  7. After baking, let biscuits cool slightly. Brush tops with melted butter and drizzle with glaze. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Toss blueberries in a little flour before adding to dough to prevent sinking.
  • Use thawed and drained frozen blueberries to avoid excess moisture.
  • Dough can be prepared and refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking.
  • Cold butter and gentle mixing help achieve fluffier biscuits.
  • Unbaked biscuits can be frozen on a baking sheet then stored airtight; bake from frozen with extra baking time.
  • Glaze is optional but adds sweetness and flavor.
  • Other berries like raspberries or blackberries can substitute blueberries.
  • Serve with whipped cream, butter, or fruit preserves for extra indulgence.
