Buttery Blueberry Ginger Biscuits Recipes

BLUEBERRY-GINGER SLAB BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly coat a 13x9" baking pan or dish with nonstick spray. Whisk baking powder, salt, ground ginger, 4½ cups (563 g) all-purpose flour, ½ cup (45 g) oats, and ¼ cup (50 g) sugar in a large bowl to combine. Grate butter into dry ingredients on the large holes of a box grater, then lightly toss to coat. Add lemon zest and toss again. Freeze 10 minutes.
• Whisk egg, sour cream, buttermilk, and vanilla in a medium bowl to combine. Add all but 1 Tbsp. egg mixture to flour mixture and mix with a fork just until combined. Set remaining egg mixture aside for brushing over biscuits. Knead mixture in bowl with your hands until it roughly comes together.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat together. Dusting with flour as needed, gently roll out to a 16x12" rectangle.
• Stir jam and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Spread over half of dough, staying just shy of edges. Scatter berries and candied ginger over. Fold side of dough without toppings up and over filling and gently press to seal. Using a bench scraper or a knife, cut biscuits into 12 portions. Arrange portions as they were cut in prepared pan. Brush with reserved egg mixture and sprinkle top with remaining 2 Tbsp. oats and 4 tsp. sugar.
• Bake biscuits until puffed and golden, 30-35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

QUICK AND EASY BLUEBERRY BISCUITS RECIPE

Steps:

• The key to success in this recipe is to keep the ingredients cold and get the biscuits in the oven right away.
• Store the butter and cream or buttermilk in the fridge until they're ready - they should not be room temperature. If the dough sits out for any period of time, chill them for a few minutes in the fridge.
• Heat your oven to 425 degrees.
• Add the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder to a large bowl.
• Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly or sieve them to ensure they're fully blended.
• Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a knife or pastry blender, blending until the butter is pea-size.
• Create a well in the center of the bowl and add 2/3 cup liquid and mix gently.
• Add more liquid, one tablespoon at a time, if needed
• The dough will barely hold together, and have chunks of butter. Place it on a lightly floured work surface and add the berries gently. If the dough is very soft and warm, chill for 20 minutes.
• To shape the biscuits, you can roll the dough into a rectangle and cut into 12 pieces. Or, you can use a biscuit cutter. Or, you can scoop large spoonfuls of dough. There's no wrong way to shape the biscuits, just ensure they are uniform in shape and size. If you want, you can brush the tops with milk, or sprinkle with turbinado sugar, or do both.
• Bake the biscuits at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes. They will begin to become golden brown on top, and begin to crisp up. They should not be wet or shiny, but look light, fluffy, and delicious.
