Ingredients
  

For the Biscuit Batter
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Substitute with a gluten-free flour blend for a gluten-free option.
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder Ensure it's fresh for optimal rise.
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar Can be reduced or substituted with coconut sugar.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Avoid adding too much as it might overpower the sweetness.
  • 1 cup Buttermilk Substitute with a mix of milk and vinegar for a homemade version.
  • 1 stick Unsalted Butter Be sure it’s cold before melting.
For the Berry Filling
  • 1 to 1.5 cups Fresh or Frozen Blueberries If using frozen, do not thaw to prevent sogginess.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Melt one stick of unsalted butter in an 8x8-inch baking dish in the oven for about 5-7 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Whisk for about 30 seconds.
  3. Pour in 1 cup of cold buttermilk into the dry ingredients and stir gently until a sticky dough forms, about 30 seconds.
  4. Gently fold in 1 to 1.5 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries keeping them intact.
  5. Pour the dough over the melted butter in the baking dish. It should look like it’s floating on top.
  6. Score the dough into 9 equal squares with a butter knife.
  7. Bake for 25 to 28 minutes until golden brown on top and edges are crisp.
  8. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving warm, drizzled with honey or maple syrup, if desired.
