Step-by-Step 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 flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add the buttermilk and stir gently until a shaggy dough forms.
  5. Fold in the blueberries carefully to distribute them without breaking.
