Ingredients
For the biscuits:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup cold buttermilk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
- turbinado sugar, for sprinkling on the biscuits
For the strawberry glaze:
- 1/4 cup chopped strawberries
- 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon heavy cream or whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475°F. Line a large baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine cold buttermilk and the slightly cooled melted butter. Stir with a spatula until combined and small clumps form. It is ok if the mixture is lumpy. Stir in the vanilla.
- Add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients and stir with rubber spatula until just combined and the biscuit batter pulls away from sides of bowl. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
- Scoop biscuit batter (approximately 3-tablespoons per biscuit) and drop on prepared baking sheet, spacing biscuits at least 2 inches apart. Sprinkle the tops with turbinado sugar.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven, on the middle rack, and bake until the biscuit tops are golden brown, about 10 to 14 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let biscuits cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. Transfer biscuits to wire rack and let cool completely.
- While the biscuits are cooling, make the strawberry glaze. Place the 1/4 cup of strawberries in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Transfer the strawberry puree to a medium bowl. Add the confectioner’s sugar and whisk until combined. It will be thick. Add the heavy cream (or milk), vanilla, and almond extract. Whisk until smooth.
- Drizzle the strawberry glaze over the cooled biscuits. Enjoy!
