2 Cs Flour
1 C milk (cold)
1/3 Cup sugar
5 Tbsps. of butter (cold or frozen)
4 tsps. baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 ozs. wild blueberries (fresh or
frozen)
At
home, Glaze:
1
C powdered sugar
1/8
C water
1
tsp. vanilla
½
tsp. lemon juice
Directions:
Preheat
oven to 450F. Mix salt, sugar, flour, and baking powder in a bowl. Add the
super cold milk into dry ingredients and mix. As dough begins to form take each
tablespoon of hardened solidified butter and break chunks off and spread evenly
over dough. Fold dough, and knead… repeat until all butter is spread in chunks
evenly throughout dough. Move dough to floured cutting board and roll flat to
about ¼ - ½ thick (or to desired thickness) and cut approximately 6 biscuits
with a biscuit or cookie cutter. If you notice the butter start to melt (hot
kitchen) during this process it may be necessary to return the dough to the
freezer for 10-15 minutes. Do not exceed 20, as the baking powder’s 1st stage
may become inactive past that. Place in oven and bake for about 7-12 minutes.
Melt 1 tablespoon of low-fat butter in the microwave, and paint finished
biscuits with pastry brush. Mix glaze ingredients in a bowl, and drizzle over biscuits. © Al (Alex-Alexander) D Girvan.
