Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Gather all your ingredients and find a mixing bowl to start combining the dry components.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. Cut 1/4 cup of very cold butter into small cubes and add into the dry mixture, using a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries into the dough mixture, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Slowly pour in 3/4 cup of milk, mixing until just combined. Use a spatula to gently stir until the ingredients form a shaggy dough.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
  7. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out rounds from the dough, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Bake in your preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown on top.
