Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour (plus 1 teaspoon for blueberries)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
1 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with 1 teaspoon of flour.
Pour the buttermilk into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
Fold in the floured blueberries cautiously to avoid crushing them.
Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
While the biscuits are cooling, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure your butter is cold to create a flaky biscuit texture. Do not overmix the dough once the buttermilk is added. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
