Blueberry Biscuits


I had some extra blueberries lying around and I'm not a blueberry eater, but I will eat a dessert or dish with blueberries in it! So I quickly searched for a recipe with blueberries that wasn't absolutely FULL of sugar. This recipe is it! There isn't much sugar, but the blueberries add a sweetness that doesn't bog you down after you eat it. My favorite! (The original recipe has a compote to go with it)

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup blueberries

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2. Sift together the dry ingredients. Add the blue berries and mix. Add in the cream gently until the mixture is just mixed. You want a nice lumpy batter, which makes the biscuits light and fluffy!

3. On lightly floured parchment paper, knead the dough about four times into an 8" square or rectangle. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into 8-12 pieces leaving the bottom of the dough intact.

4. Place the parchment paper and dough onto a cookie sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Enjoy!
