Ingredients Needed To Make Blueberry Butter Swim Biscuits

• ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup granulated sugar (adjust for sweetness)
• 1 Tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ¾ – 2 cups buttermilk (adjust for consistency)

How To Make Blueberry Swim Biscuits

Preheat & Prepare the Butter

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Place butter in an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish and let it melt in the preheating oven (about 5 minutes). Remove once fully melted.

Make the Biscuit Dough

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Pour in buttermilk and gently mix until a sticky dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, add a bit more buttermilk.
Gently fold in the blueberries and vanilla extract (if using), being careful not to overmix.

Bake the Biscuits

Pour the biscuit dough directly into the melted butter in the baking dish.
Use a knife to score the dough into 9 squares for easy portioning.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Make the Glaze & Finish

While the biscuits bake, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over warm biscuits for an extra touch of sweetness.

Serve & Enjoy!

Serve warm, as-is, or with honey, jam, or extra butter!

These Blueberry Butter Swim Biscuits are an easy, fail-proof way to enjoy buttery, fruity goodness in every bite. Perfect for weekend brunch or a cozy morning treat!
