Biscuits
- 1 ¼ cup chilled whole buttermilk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup salted butter frozen for 10 minutes
- 1 tablespoon melted salted butter
- 2 ½ cups self-rising flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- Zest of 1 lemon
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
Icing
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 teaspoons milk
- Pinch of salt
Step 1: Gather Ingredients
Step 2: Prepare the Butter
Step 3: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and lemon zest. Whisk it all together until completely mixed.
Step 5: Incorporate Buttermilk
Step 6: Shape the Biscuits
Step 8: Prepare the Icing
While the biscuits are baking, mix the icing ingredients. In a medium bowl, combine lemon juice, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Adjust the consistency with milk, as needed. The icing should be pourable but not too runny.
Step 9: Drizzle the Icing
Here are some helpful tips to nail this recipe:
- Chill Your Ingredients: Keeping the butter and buttermilk cold helps create a tender, flaky texture.
- Don’t Overmix: Overmixing leads to tough biscuits. Mix just until combined!
- Use Fresh Blueberries: Frozen blueberries can work, but they can make the dough wetter. If using frozen, slightly reduce the amount of buttermilk.
- Shape Uniformly: Try cutting the biscuits evenly for consistent baking.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for added depth.
