Blueberry Biscuits

Prep Time: 5 mins | Total Time: 20 mins | Makes: 12 biscuits

If you’re looking for a quick, healthy treat that can you can enjoy either as dessert OR breakfast, look no further. Usually biscuits can be dry and tasteless, but these are actually fluffy, soft, and full of flavor. Try them for yourself :)

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

  • ½ cup melted butter (vegan butter optional)

  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond or other milk

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder

  • 2 cup flour (regular or gluten-free both work)

  • 1 cup frozen wild blueberries

Vanilla Icing (Vegan optional)

  • ½ cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tbsp unsweetened almond or other milk

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

HOW TO MAKE:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix the melted butter, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, salt, and baking powder. Then, mix in the flour. Only mix until the dough is combined. Be careful not to over mix! If using gluten-free flour and the dough seems crumbly, add another 1 tablespoon of melted butter and 1 tablespoon of almond milk and work it into the dough. 

  3. Gently fold in the blueberries. Again, don’t over mix! Use a heaping tablespoon to scoop out 12 biscuits and drop them onto the lined baking sheet.

  4. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes until they are lightly golden on top. Option to broil at the end for about a minute to give them more color on top.

  5. While baking, use a whisk to mix your powdered sugar and almond milk to make a glaze. Drizzle over the warm biscuits and serve immediately.
