Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour regular old flour, nothing fancy
  • 2 tsp baking powder not baking soda, don’t mix ’em up
  • 1/4 cup sugar just enough to give things a boost
  • 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup milk (whole recommended for a richer flavor)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted, you want a lot
Add-ins
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries don’t sweat it if that’s what you have

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and prepare an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish.
  2. Melt the butter in the baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  4. Add the milk to the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the blueberries.
Baking
  1. Pour the mixture into the melted butter in the baking dish.
  2. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the biscuits smell irresistible.
  3. Let cool slightly, then cut into squares and serve warm.

Notes

For added sweetness, serve with extra butter or a drizzle of honey. These biscuits also pair well with yogurt or whipped cream. If your biscuits come out a little dense, just fold until things are mostly together—lumps are your friend. If using frozen berries, just toss them in frozen without thawing.
