Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the buttermilk and gently mix until just combined.
- Fold in the fresh blueberries carefully to avoid breaking them.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times until it comes together.

- Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- These biscuits can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

- You can substitute the blueberries with raspberries or chopped strawberries for a different flavor.
