Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk, cold
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Fruit

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to create a well-balanced base for your biscuits.
  2. Cut in the Butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the cold unsalted butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with tiny pea-sized bits of butter to ensure flakiness.
  3. Add the Wet Ingredients: Pour in the buttermilk and vanilla extract, stirring gently just until the dough starts to come together, being careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits tender.
  4. Fold in the Blueberries: Gently fold fresh blueberries into the dough, distributing the fruit evenly without breaking up the berries to maintain juicy pockets.
  5. Shape and Cut the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a rectangle about an inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds, handling the dough lightly for maximum fluffiness.
  6. Bake Until Golden: Arrange the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tops are beautifully golden and the biscuits have risen well.

Notes

  • Keep ingredients cold: Using chilled butter and buttermilk helps create flaky layers.
  • Minimal mixing: Stir dough just until combined to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Use fresh blueberries: Frozen berries can cause too much moisture, making the dough soggy.
  • Do not twist cutter: Press straight down when cutting biscuits to help them rise evenly.
  • Bake immediately: Avoid letting the dough sit too long before baking for the best texture.
