Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Dry Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute.

Step 2: Incorporate Butter

Grate the cold butter directly into the flour mixture. Use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the butter in until the texture is similar to coarse crumbs.

Step 3: Make the Dough

Add the milk and blueberries to the dry mix. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will toughen the dough.

Step 4: Shape and Cut

Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Turn out the dough and gently flatten it to about ¼ to ⅛ inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out about 6 biscuits.

Step 5: Bake

Place the biscuits on a baking tray and bake for 7 to 12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers are cooked through.

Step 6: Mix the Glaze

While the biscuits are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, water, vanilla extract, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth and pourable.

Step 7: Glaze and Serve

Once the biscuits are hot out of the oven, brush the tops with a little melted butter (about 1 tablespoon). Drizzle the lemon glaze over the tops. Let it set for a few minutes, then enjoy warm.
