    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed

    • 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
  • For Topping (Optional):
    • 1 tablespoon melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Add the Butter: Cut in the cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Add Strawberries: Gently fold in the diced strawberries, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Shape the Biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar if desired.
  7. Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
  8. Cool & Serve: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a drizzle of honey or whipped cream!

 

Recipe Tips & Tricks

  • Use Cold Butter: For the fluffiest biscuits, make sure your butter is chilled before mixing it into the dough.
  • Don’t Overmix: Gently fold the ingredients together to avoid tough biscuits.
  • Fresh Strawberries: Fresh strawberries give these biscuits a juicy burst of flavor, but you can also use frozen if that’s what you have on hand.

 

Storage and Make-Ahead Instructions

  • To Store: Keep leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • To Freeze: Wrap each biscuit individually in plastic wrap, then store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. When ready to eat, thaw and warm them up in the oven.

 

Variations or Substitutes

  • Gluten-Free: Swap the all-purpose flour with a 1-to-1 gluten-free baking flour.
  • Dairy-Free: Substitute the butter with coconut oil and use almond milk in place of buttermilk.
  • Flavor Twist: Add a dash of cinnamon or lemon zest to the dough for a new flavor dimension.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I use frozen strawberries? Yes! Just thaw them first and drain any excess liquid before adding them to the dough.
  • What can I serve with these biscuits? They’re delicious with butter, honey, or a dollop of whipped cream on top!
