Blueberry Biscuits w/ Blueberry Honey Butter
Who wouldn’t love to wake up to breakfast in bed on their birthday? There are some days all I can think about is vegging out in bed. I think a “day off” on my birthday would be the perfect time to do it.
I teamed up with Alyssa Raymond of WTHR to create the perfect breakfast in bed treat for my birthday, or any day! These would be absolutely perfect on a lazy Saturday morning. They’d even be delicious as breakfast for dinner.
Although I will be preparing meals for my weekly clean/paleo clients on my birthday, I’m looking forward to finding a day to relax somewhere in the week of my birthday.
Happy Birthday to me, and enjoy these amazing biscuits!
Blueberry Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted FROZEN butter, cut into tiny cubes or grated
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- milk for brushing on top before baking
- 1 teaspoon coarse sugar for garnish, optional
- 1/2 stick salted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1 pint blueberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and salt. Using a biscuit cutter or a fork, combine grated butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse sand.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in 1 cup of buttermilk. Add 1 cup of the blueberries to the flour mixture and toss with a wooden spoon until blended.
- Gather the dough in your lightly floured hands onto a lightly floured countertop and gently mold into a ball. Flatten ball with your hand until about 1-1 1/2 in thick. Cut biscuits with a biscuit cutter and place into a buttered cast iron skillet. Biscuits can touch. Brush the tops of the biscuits with milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
- Bake for 23-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While biscuits are baking, prepare the sauce and butter.
- Combine blueberries and sugar into a small sauce pot. Bring to medium heat and let mixture come to a bubble. Blueberries will start to let off their natural moisture and a sauce will begin to develop. Let mixture cook on medium-low heat until blueberries are softened and sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Smash butter, honey, and blueberries in a small bowl, until fully combined. Keep at room temperature until ready to use. Store in refrigerator when not using.
- Open a warm biscuit and top with honey butter. Spoon sauce over butter and biscuits and…
- ENJOY!
