Ingredients
Biscuits:
2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon (12 g) baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon (12 g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon (6 g) kosher salt
8 tablespoons (112 g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 cup (150 g) fresh strawberries, diced
3/4 cup (180 g) cold buttermilk
1 large egg + 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
Vanilla Glaze:
1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
1 tablespoon (15 g) milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat chopped strawberries dry to prevent excess moisture in the dough.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
Cut in cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter or fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently fold in the strawberries. Add the buttermilk and stir just until the dough comes together.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold it over a few times for flaky layers.
Cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter. Reroll scraps as needed.
Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown.
Mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over warm biscuits and serve.
