Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients & Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, diced
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tablespoons milk or cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar to ensure the biscuits get the right lift, flavor, and sweetness.
  2. Cut in the cold butter: Dice cold unsalted butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to mix it into the flour mixture until pea-sized crumbs form. This is crucial for flaky biscuit layers.
  3. Add the strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries carefully to keep the pieces intact within the dough.
  4. Incorporate buttermilk and vanilla: Pour in cold buttermilk and vanilla extract, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
  5. Shape and bake the biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, pat into a thick rectangle, and cut rounds or squares with a biscuit cutter. Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes until golden and fluffy.
  6. Make the sweet glaze: While the biscuits bake, whisk powdered sugar with milk or cream until smooth and glossy. Adjust the consistency for drizzling or thicker topping as desired.
  7. Glaze and serve: Drizzle the warm biscuits generously with the sweet glaze as soon as they come out of the oven. Serve fresh for the perfect combination of warm biscuit, fruity sweetness, and sugary glaze.

Notes

  • Keep butter cold to ensure flaky biscuit texture; refrigerate until just before use.
  • Do not overmix the dough to avoid dense biscuits.
  • Use ripe strawberries for maximum flavor impact.
  • If dough is too sticky to handle, chill briefly in the refrigerator before shaping.
  • Apply glaze while biscuits are still warm so the sweetness sinks in perfectly.
