Blackberry Biscuits

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 450 F.
2. 2
   In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and one tablespoon of granulated sugar. Add in the butter and work it in with your hands, breaking up large pieces as you go, until the butter is in pea-sized bits. Add the buttermilk and mix to combine.
3. 3
   Place the dough on a floured countertop and roll it out so it is about 14 inches long and 7 inches wide. Halve each of the blackberries lengthwise. Place them on top of the dough, spaced evenly, cut side down. Sprinkle the blackberries with some sugar and, in one quick motion, fold half of the dough over the other half so the blackberries are in the middle, and the dough forms a square. Cut the dough in half vertically and horizontally. You should be left with 4 squares. Cut each square in half again so you are left with 8 rectangles.
4. 4
   Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet that you've covered with parchment paper. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown. Enjoy!
