Glazed Berry Biscuits

 

For the Biscuits

· 2 cups all-purpose flour

· 1/3 cup granulated sugar

· 2 teaspoons baking powder

· 1 teaspoon kosher salt

· 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

· 1 stick unsalted butter, cubed and chilled

· 1 cup buttermilk

· 1 cup freeze-dried or dried blueberries

 

For the Glaze

· 1/2 cup powdered sugar

· 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Steps

1. Set a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Make the biscuits: Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda into a medium bowl. Add the butter and use clean hands to squeeze it into the flour until a crumbly, sandy mixture forms with some small chunks of butter. Add the buttermilk and swirl the mixture with your hands to form a cohesive, sticky dough. Place the bowl in the freezer to chill for about 15 minutes.

3. Add the blueberries to the bowl and gently fold to incorporate. Use a 1/4-cup measure to portion 8 balls of dough into 1-inch-thick discs. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the biscuits are light golden brown. Let cool slightly on the sheet for about 10 minutes.

4. Make the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla in a small bowl. Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the still-warm biscuits.
