Blueberry Cream Biscuits with Blueberry Sauce

2 C. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. grated nutmeg
1 C. fresh blueberries
1 1/2 C. whipping cream
blueberry sauce (recipe follows)

Preheat oven to 425. In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and nutmeg to thoroughly mix. Toss blueberries with flour mixture. Stir cream into mixture just until moistened.
Turn dough out onto floured surface. Gently lift and fold dough 4-5 times, making a quarter turn between each fold. Place dough on parchment-lined baking sheet. Form dough into a 7-8 in. square, approximately 1 in. thick. Using a floured pizza cutter or knife, cut 12-16 biscuits, leaving biscuits intact. Bake in upper half of oven for 17-20 min. or until golden brown. Cut or pull apart to serve. Top with Blueberry Sauce.

Blueberry Sauce:
2 C. fresh blueberries, divided
1/3 C. sugar
2 Tbsp. water
1 tsp. vanilla

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 C. blueberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a simmer; cook and stir until blueberries pop and sauce has thickened. Remove from heat and stir in remaining blueberries and vanilla. Serve warm.
