Ingredients
Scale
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp aluminum-free baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 3/4 to 2 cups buttermilk
1 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup powdered sugar
2–3 tbsp milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Melt the butter in the microwave and pour it into the prepared baking dish. You can melt the butter directly in the dish if it’s microwave-safe and not metal.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add buttermilk: Pour in 1 3/4 cups of buttermilk and stir until a sticky dough forms. Add a bit more buttermilk if the mixture seems too dry.
- Fold in blueberries: Gently stir in the blueberries without overmixing.
- Transfer to dish: Pour the biscuit dough into the baking dish over the melted butter. Spread it evenly using a spatula or greased hands.
- Score the dough: Lightly cut the dough into 9 squares to make serving easier after baking.
- Bake: Place the dish on the middle rack and bake for 25-30 minutes. Rotate halfway through for even baking. Look for a golden-brown top and a clean toothpick when inserted in the center.
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and milk together until smooth.
- Cool and serve: Let the biscuits cool slightly before slicing along the scored lines and serving.
Notes
Use lemon zest for added brightness.
If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw.
Score the dough before baking to make slicing easier.
