Step by Step Method
Step 1
Mix 2 cups of the flour with the sugar, baking powder, lemon peel, salt, and soda in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix egg and buttermilk in a bowl then stir into the flour mixture. Stir in the frozen blueberries.
Step 2
Spread about 1/4 cup of flour onto a flat surface, then flour-coat your fingers.
Step 3
Place the dough onto the floured surface. Gently knead 6 or 7 times, just until dough begins to hold together.
Step 4
Pat dough into a rectangle or round 1/2-inch thick. Cut out rounds with a floured 2-inch cutter or glass.
Step 5
Place biscuits 2 inches apart on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake in CENTER POSITION of the oven in a preheated 400° oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
