Recipe :
Ingredients:
For the Biscuits:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup buttermilk (or regular milk with a squeeze of lemon juice)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the Blueberry Filling:
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions :
1. Preheat and Prepare:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Blueberry Filling:
- In a small saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the mixture thickens and the blueberries burst, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
3. Prepare the Biscuit Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and cut it in using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the buttermilk (or milk with lemon juice) and pure vanilla extract. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Form Biscuits with Blueberry Filling:
- Turn the biscuit dough out onto a floured surface. Gently knead it a few times to bring it together.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1/2-inch thick.
- Spread the cooled blueberry filling evenly over the dough.
5. Fold and Cut:
- Carefully fold the dough in half, covering the blueberry filling.
- Use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
7. Prepare the Glaze:
- While the biscuits are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and pure vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the thickness of the glaze by adding more or less milk.
8. Glaze and Serve:
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm Sweet Blueberry Biscuits.
