Steps:

BLUEBERRY LEMON DROP BISCUIT:

  1. This recipe transforms any leftover Blueberry Lemon Drop Biscuits into a unique and delicious breakfast parfait.
  2. 1 oz equivalent WG blueberry muffins or bread can be used instead of the blueberry lemon drop biscuits.

    If using blueberry muffins or bread, toss fresh blueberries with lemon zest to ensure the blueberry-lemon flavor. Two tablespoons lemon zest for every 4 1/2 pounds fresh blueberries works well.
