Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2½ cups (300g) all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1¾ cups (414ml) buttermilk
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
Fruit
- 1½ cups (222g) fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Lightly grease or use a non-stick 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish to prepare for baking.
- Add Butter: Pour the melted unsalted butter evenly into the bottom of the baking dish, coating it thoroughly to create a buttery base for the biscuits.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Add Buttermilk: Pour the buttermilk into the bowl with dry ingredients and stir gently until a wet dough forms, being careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits tender.
- Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries with a spatula, ensuring they remain mostly intact to keep bursts of blueberry flavor throughout.
- Transfer to Dish: Spoon the dough into the prepared baking dish. Use the spatula to spread the dough evenly for uniform biscuit thickness.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture, and enjoy!
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter; overmixing can result in tough biscuits.
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and texture; frozen berries may release excess moisture.
- Serve these biscuits warm with additional butter or honey if desired.
- Leftover biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- To reheat, warm gently in the oven or microwave until just heated through.
