Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  3. Add ½ cup of cold, cubed butter to your dry mixture and cut it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup of blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
  5. Pour in ¾ cup of cold milk and mix the dough gently until just combined.
  6. Lightly flour a surface, turn the dough out, and pat it down to about 1 inch thick. Using a round cutter, cut out biscuits and transfer them to the baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown on top and slightly browned at the edges.
  8. While biscuits cool, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2-3 tablespoons of water, ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice for the glaze.
  9. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the warm biscuits and serve immediately.
