Description

Delicious Blueberry Butter Swim Biscuits are a delightful, buttery baked treat bursting with fresh blueberries. These easy-to-make biscuits are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack, featuring a tender crumb and golden crust from baking in butter. With just a few simple ingredients and straightforward steps, you can enjoy homemade biscuits that combine a flaky texture with the natural sweetness of blueberries.


Ingredients

Scale

Butter

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk

Fruit

  • 1 cup blueberries


Instructions

  1. Preheat and butter the pan: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Melt the 1/2 cup unsalted butter and pour it evenly into an 8×8-inch baking dish to coat the bottom.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Add buttermilk: Pour in the buttermilk and stir just until the ingredients are combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits tender.
  4. Fold in blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, taking care not to crush them, so they remain whole and juicy.
  5. Transfer dough to pan: Pour the biscuit batter into the prepared buttered baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
  6. Score the dough: Using a knife, lightly score the top of the dough into 9 equal squares to help separate the biscuits after baking.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 28 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Rest and serve: Allow the biscuits to rest for 5 minutes before cutting completely. Serve warm, optionally with honey or your favorite jam for added sweetness.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to ensure tender biscuits.
  • Fold blueberries in gently to avoid breaking them and making the batter purple.
  • Scoring the dough before baking helps in easy portioning and gives the biscuits a nice look.
  • Enjoy warm with honey, jam, or butter for an extra touch of flavor.
