- 4 cups blueberries
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt
For the biscuits:
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tbsp granulated white sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp butter ice cold
- 1 cup cream or milk
To make the filling:
Add the blueberries, water, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, butter, and salt to a large skillet with a tightly fitting lid.
Simmer the blueberries on low heat for about 15 minutes or until thickened.
To make the biscuits:
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Blend well.
Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs.
Add the cream, mixing well with a fork.
To finish:
Once the blueberry mixture has thickened, drop spoonfuls of biscuit batter to the top of the blueberry mixture. I aim for 8 biscuits.
Pop the lid on and turn the heat to low, so that the mixture is gently simmering. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until the biscuits are cooked in the center.
Enjoy!
