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

Add-ins

  • 1 cup blueberries


Instructions

  1. Preheat and butter the dish: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter and pour it into an 8×8-inch baking dish, ensuring the bottom and sides are well-coated to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined, creating the biscuit base.
  3. Add buttermilk: Pour in the 1 3/4 cups of buttermilk and stir gently until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix, as this can toughen the biscuits.
  4. Incorporate blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the dough to distribute them evenly without crushing the berries.
  5. Transfer dough: Pour the batter into the buttered baking dish and spread it evenly to fill the dish.
  6. Score dough: Using a knife, score the top of the dough into 9 equal squares. This helps in dividing the biscuits after baking.
  7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 28 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.
  8. Rest and serve: Remove from the oven and let the biscuits rest for 5 minutes. Serve the warm biscuits with honey or jam if desired for added sweetness.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
  • Gently fold in blueberries to avoid crushing them and turning the dough purple.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor, optionally with honey or jam.
  • Can substitute frozen blueberries if fresh are not available; do not thaw before mixing.
  • Use a sharp knife for scoring to achieve clean biscuit shapes.
