Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt, stirring until well blended.
  3. Add 1/4 cup of cold butter to the flour mixture and blend until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup of blueberries, ensuring they remain whole.
  5. Pour in 3/4 cup of cold milk and mix until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and shape it into a disc about 1 inch thick.
  7. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown.
  9. While the biscuits are baking, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to make the glaze.
  10. Drizzle the lemon glaze over warm biscuits after they are out of the oven.
