Fresh cranberry biscuit covered in a sweet and sticky glaze. These blueberry biscuits are a delicious breakfast!
I was at a bed and breakfast taking a little vacation with my husband before the kids. I've never had a warm biscuit stuffed with delicious blueberries and then topped with a sticky glaze and that was just heaven!
I've seen similar cranberry biscuits with glaze when I lived in Atlanta in Popeyes or made by Pillsbury, but none of them could hold a candle to these delicious biscuits!
