BakeryBreakfast
Ingredients
Biscuits
- 2 3/4 cups (330g) all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp (40g) granulated sugar
- 4 tsp (16g) baking powder
- 1/4 tsp (2g) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 1 cup (220g) blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1 1/2 cups (360ml) buttermilk, cold
- 1/2 cup (120g) Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp (4g) vanilla bean paste or extract
- 1/2 cup (113g) salted butter
Cinnamon Crunch Topping
- 1/2 cup (110g) brown sugar
- 2 tsp (4g) cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Then add the blueberries and toss until evenly dispersed.
- Set aside.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, Greek yogurt, and vanilla until well combined.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, and pour in the wet mixture.
- Use a wooden spoon or spatula to stir until just combined, being careful not to overwork the dough.
- The dough WILL be sticky and almost wet, but trust the process!
- Add the butter to a 9x9” baking pan or dish.
- If using a square baking pan,.
- Place the pan into the oven , and allow the butter to sit in the oven for a few minutes to fully melt.
- While the butter is melting in the oven, prepare the cinnamon crunch topping by mixing the brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
- Set aside.
- Remove the pan from the oven and pour/drop the biscuit dough into the hot butter.
- Use a spatula to spread the dough evenly out to the edges of the pan.
- Using a knife or a bench scraper, score the unbaked dough into 6 or 8 equal rectangles or squares, depending on how large you want the biscuits.
- As you do this, try to almost drag the butter down with the score, this will help to separate the biscuits as they bake.
- Then, sprinkle the cinnamon brown sugar all over the tops of the biscuits.
- Place the pan onto the middle rack of your oven, and place a baking sheet on the rack below to catch any drippings.
- Bake at 450F for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are deeply golden, crispy, and bubbling.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let rest for at least 5-10 minutes so the butter can continue to absorb.
