Ingredients
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
¾ cup cold buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, unthawed)
2 tablespoons heavy cream or melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Cut in the cold butter using fingers or a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the blueberries without overmixing.
6. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
7. Use a round cutter to cut out biscuits, pressing straight down.
8. Place biscuits on the baking sheet. Brush tops with cream or melted butter.
9. Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Let cool slightly and serve warm.
Notes
Keep your butter and buttermilk very cold to ensure flakiness.
Do not twist the biscuit cutter; press straight down to help them rise evenly.
