Description
Delightful biscuits infused with tangy lemon and juicy blueberries, featuring a unique butter swim technique for a rich and comforting treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Pour the melted butter into your prepared baking dish, ensuring it coats the bottom.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl until everything is well combined.
- Stir in the melted butter, buttermilk, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the dough.
- Fold in the blueberries gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed but intact for those beautiful bursts in each biscuit.
- Spoon the biscuit mixture into the dish over the melted butter, spacing them slightly apart to give them room to rise.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops turn a beautiful golden brown and the scent wafts through your kitchen.
- Serve warm and indulge in the delightful medley of textures and flavors.
Notes
For a gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. You can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to a few hours before baking.
