Glazed Blueberry Biscuits image

This recipe was shared by a friend and it definitely makes more of a dessert biscuit instead of a traditional savory one, which is a nice change of pace. Good served with a cup of tea or coffee, instead of alongside a meaty meal.

Time 30m

Yield 10 biscuits, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk, cold
5 tablespoons butter, frozen
3 ounces blueberries (fresh or dried)
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl until well-incorporated.
  • Add the cold milk & mix a bit. As dough begins to form, use a cheese grater to grate the butter into the dough evenly. Fold dough as you grate so the butter spreads evenly throughout. When done with the butter, fold in the blueberries.
  • Gently pull off chunks of dough and pat to form 10 biscuits of roughly the same size. Place on ungreased cookie sheet or cake pan. Bake in oven for about 7-12 minutes, or until golden.
  • When biscuits are done, paint them with the melted butter using a pastry brush.
  • Just before serving, mix the powdered sugar, water, vanilla and lemon juice to create a glaze. Drizzle over biscuits.
