Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
  5. Pour in the cold milk and stir gently until just combined.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch thick disk.
  7. Cut out biscuits with a round cutter by pressing straight down.
  8. Place cut-out biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  9. While the biscuits bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and zest until smooth.
  10. Let biscuits cool for a few minutes before drizzling the lemon glaze over them.
