Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy cream + 1 tablespoon vinegar (buttermilk substitute)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter cold and cut into small cubes
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon vinegar. Let sit for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. Add cold butter cubes and cut them into the flour using a pastry cutter or your fingertips. Mixture should resemble coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter.

  8. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
