1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
3/4 cup milk
1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Cut in Butter

Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Milk and Blueberries

Pour in the milk and gently fold in the blueberries until just combined.

Shape the Biscuits

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently. Pat into a 1-inch thick circle and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter.

Bake

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Serve

These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven!

Nutrition Highlights

These blueberry biscuits are not only delicious but also provide some nutritional benefits. Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber, making them a healthy addition to your diet. They can help improve heart health, support digestion, and boost your immune system. Incorporating these berries into your baked goods is a fantastic way to enjoy their health benefits.

While biscuits are typically considered a treat, these can be enjoyed as part of a balanced breakfast. Pair them with a source of protein, like yogurt or eggs, to create a nourishing meal that keeps you satisfied throughout the morning.

Variations to Try

Feel free to customize your blueberry biscuits! Consider adding lemon zest for a refreshing citrus twist or mixing in some chopped nuts for added texture. If you want to experiment with flavors, try substituting half the blueberries with another berry, like raspberries or blackberries, for a delightful mix.

For those looking to make these biscuits a bit healthier, you can substitute whole wheat flour for half of the all-purpose flour. This will add more fiber and nutrients while still maintaining a delicious flavor. Another alternative is to use a sugar substitute, allowing you to enjoy the sweetness without the extra calories.
