-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cup all-purpose flour -- a little extra for rolling
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
6 Tablespoons butter -- very cold cut
3/4 cup buttermilk -- cold
3/4 cup blueberries -- frozen
2 tablespoons butter -- melted
LEMON GLAZE
1 Cup powdered sugar
2 Teaspoons lemon zest -- (to 3 tsp)
1 Tablespoons lemon juice -- fresh, (to 2 Tbsp)
I knew I wanted a lemon glaze. Lemon and blueberry is simply a
marriage made in heaven. After several experiments this is the
Blueberry Biscuits with Lemon Glaze I decided I liked the best.
They are slightly sweet alone not real sweet. More like a regular
biscuit. The glaze makes it really sweet and the lemon tang.
Preheat oven to 450F
Cube 6 tablespoons of butter in small squares, place in a small bowl
and place in the freezer for 10 minutes
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and brush the pan you are using
liberally, I used a cast iron skillet
Start by cubing the butter in small pieces and placing it in the
freezer for 10 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, baking
soda, salt and granulated sugar
Once the butter is cold enough using a fork or pastry cutter cut the
butter into the flour mixture until the butter looks like small pebbles or peas
Remove the buttermilk from the fridge and slowly mix it into the flour mixture.
Fold in blueberries carefully, if using frozen they won't break as easily
Turn the mixture onto a floured surface and with floured hands press
the dough into a 1/2 -3/4" rectangle-Do Not Roll or the berries will break
Use a bicuit cutter or glass and cut the biscuits and place them in the pan
You will need to reform the dough to cut more biscuits, you should be
able to get 5-6 depending on the size
Brush the biscuits with the melted butter
Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 14 mins or until golden brown
While the bicuits are baking mix the glaze to the consistency you
like using fresh lemon juice
Once the biscuits are done let them cool for 5 minutes
Drizzle glaze on biscuits
Question: Are the biscuits themselves sweet? Or are they similar to
normal biscuit flavor?
Reply: They are slightly sweet alone not real sweet. More like a
regular biscuit. The glaze makes it really sweet and the lemon tang.
Review: These melt in your mouth biscuits have blueberries in every
bite. The lemon glaze is what really makes these special.
