Ingredients
  

  • cups all-purpose flour (410g)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 4 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 10 tablespoon salted butter (cubed and divided)
  • cups blueberries (fresh, clean and dry)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup 2% milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt.
  • Add 8 tablespoons of cubed butter and use your fingers to toss the butter and coat each cube in flour. Press each cube between your thumb and forefinger to shape it into a flat disc.
  • Add the blueberries to the flour and butter and toss well with your fingers to mix everything together.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, vanilla, sour cream, and milk until smooth.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough is starting to come together.
  • Using your hands, fold the dough over itself several times, pressing the dough together and rotating the bowl in between folds, until all of the flour is incorporated.
  • Place a sheet of parchment paper over your countertop and transfer the dough in an elongated mound to the parchment paper. Press the mound into a 12" x 6" rectangle. Some berries will get mashed in the process but they will bake up jammy and delicious.
  • Cut the dough into 8 squares. Transfer each one to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Melt the remaining two tablespoons of butter and brush over the tops of the biscuits.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the tops are lightly browned and the bottoms of the biscuits are golden.
  • Serve immediately with jam, butter, cream cheese, or lemon curd. Cool completely before storing any leftovers in an airtight container.
