🫐 Blueberry Biscuits
Ingredients (makes 8–10 biscuits)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ cup sugar (optional, for a slightly sweet biscuit)
- ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed

- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Optional Glaze:

- Cut in butter
- Add cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter, two knives, or fingertips to cut butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

- Cut into circles with a biscuit cutter or glass and place on baking sheet.
- Bake
- Bake 12–15 minutes until lightly golden on top.

Tips for Perfect Blueberry Biscuits
- Blueberries: Toss frozen blueberries in a little flour to prevent them from bleeding into the dough.
- Cold butter: Makes biscuits flaky and tender.
- Do not overmix: Keeps biscuits light and fluffy.
- Variations: Add a pinch of cinnamon or lemon zest for extra flavor.
If you want, I can give a “super-fluffy, bakery-style blueberry biscuits” version with a slightly sweet crumb topping and extra fluffiness inside—basically melt-in-your-mouth perfection.
