Here’s a delightful Blueberry Biscuits recipe for you:

Blueberry Biscuits

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, do not thaw)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

For the Glaze (optional):

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1-2 tbsp milk or lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet:
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Make the Biscuit Dough:
   • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
   • Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
   • Stir in the milk and vanilla extract (if using) until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
   • Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, fold them in carefully to avoid breaking them up too much.
3. Shape the Biscuits:
   • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
   • Use a biscuit cutter or a floured glass to cut out biscuits. Gather the scraps, re-pat the dough, and cut out additional biscuits.
4. Bake:
   • Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, close together but not touching.
   • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
5. Prepare the Glaze (optional):
   • While the biscuits are baking, mix the powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of milk or lemon juice to make a glaze.
   • Drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits once they come out of the oven.
6. Serve:
   • Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving.

Enjoy your fluffy, blueberry-packed biscuits!
