Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and stir until just combined to form a shaggy dough. Do not overmix.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
  • Cut the dough into 8 squares.
  • Arrange the biscuit squares on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
  • Pour the melted butter evenly over the tops of the biscuits, letting it seep down the sides.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve warm.

Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, you can add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the dry ingredients. Ensure your butter is very cold for the flakiest biscuits.
