Ingredients
Scale
For the biscuits:
- 11 tablespoons unsalted butter cold, divided use
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ¼ teaspoons fine sea salt
- 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
- 1 ⅔ cups cold buttermilk
For the honey butter:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the biscuit dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in 8 tablespoons of cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gently fold in the blueberries. Slowly add the buttermilk and mix until just combined.
- Shape and bake the biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter. Place on a baking sheet, brush the tops with melted butter, and bake until golden brown.
- Make the honey butter: In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, honey, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Notes
- Make sure the butter is cold when making the biscuit dough for a flaky texture.
- You can substitute the blueberries with other berries or fruits for variation.
- Adjust the amount of honey in the butter to suit your taste preferences.
