Blueberry Biscuits with Blueberry Compote

Yummy....That is it in a biscuit!  I found them on Pinterest and they were a hit, which is different as I am having a hard time finding TO DIE FOR RECIPES on Pinterest.  Most are just average.  It is getting a bit frustrating.    I made them yesterday and they were gone in a few minutes. Make them...soon!!

~Recipe~
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
2Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
3 cups blueberries

Oven preheated to 425
Whisk together the flour, baking powder sugar salt and nutmeg.  Add 1 cup of the blueberries and toss in the flour until they are completely covered.  Add the cream and stir until lumpy.  Flour your counter well and turn the dough out on the counter and pat into a square.  Turn it about 4-6 times, not too much, you don't want to over work the dough. Use a pizza cutter and cut into 12 pieces taking care not to cut all the way through the dough, it should still be in 1 piece.  Transfer the dough to a parchment lines baking sheet.  Bake for about 23-25 minutes. Top with the compote and sweetened cream.

~Compote~
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp water
1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 cups blueberries, divided into 1 cup each
1 tsp vanilla

Combine the sugar, water, lemon juice and 1 cup blueberries in a small saucepan.  Stir constantly over med-hi heat and bring to a boil.  Let simmer until thick and add the additional 1 cup berries and vanilla. Serve over the blueberry biscuits.  Enjoy~
