Blueberry buttermilk biscuits

I love blueberries!
I like  blueberries in muffins and scones, I also always put them in my smoothies. So today I decided to try them in my home made biscuits. They turned out really good!
So here is the recipe,  Enjoy!



Ingredients:


2 cups all purpose flour
1 TBSP baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 TBSP sugar
1/4 cup real butter
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup fresh blueberries

If you want lemon blueberry biscuits then add 1/2 Tsp lemon juice and a little lemon zest(I didn't do this but they would also taste good this way)

Directions:



Combine all dry ingredient and whisk together.
Cut in butter until resembles coarse bread crumbs. 
Add blueberries (I used frozen)
Stir in buttermilk until all comes together to form a dough ball
Turn out dough onto a heavily floured surface .
 Let it rest for a couple minutes.
knead for about a minute and then re-flour surface and pat out to about 1/2″ thick.
 Cut out circles with a glass cup or cookie cutter, place onto ungreased baking pan.
Form remaining dough into ball and repeat until all dough is made into biscuits. 
Should yield about 12 biscuits

Bake in 375 degree oven for 15minutes or until slightly golden brown on top.


note: If you want regular buttermilk biscuits just leave out the blueberries and lemon!
