Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe for Bisquick Blueberry Biscuits:
- Bisquick – I haven’t tested this recipe with other baking mixes, so I suggest sticking with the original or my DIY Bisquick mix.
- Sugar – You’ll need 1/3 cup of sugar to sweeten the biscuit dough, then another tablespoon to sprinkle on the biscuits before baking. If you have Demerara sugar on hand, you can sprinkle that over the top instead for a little more crunch.
- Blueberries – You can use fresh or frozen blueberries, or swap the blueberries for diced strawberries.
- Buttermilk – Don’t have buttermilk on hand? You can make your own with lemon juice and whole milk.
- Powdered Sugar – If you want, you can skip the powdered sugar icing, but it’s so good, you really shouldn’t!
- Milk – The icing is made with milk, but you can add a bright burst of citrus flavor by using lemon juice or orange juice instead. For a pretty pastel pink color, use ruby red grapefruit or blood orange juice.
How to Make Blueberry Biscuits With Bisquick
1. Prepare
Get out a large cookie sheet and preheat your oven to 450ºF.
2. Make the Dough
Combine the Bisquick, sugar, and buttermilk in a large bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Fold in the blueberries.
3. Form the Biscuits
Use a large cookie dough scoop or 1/4 cup measuring cup and drop the dough onto the baking sheet (no need to grease it!). Sprinkle the biscuits with sugar.
4. Bake
Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake the biscuits for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they’re golden brown.
5. Make the Glaze
Combine the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl and stir until there are no lumps. Drizzle the glaze over the biscuits, then serve.
