A southern staple. Warm and fluffy pairs well with bacon and eggs, as a side dish with fried chicken or the way I like it–with honey, butter and berries. Its quick and easy–so make it this weekend for breakfast !
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 tsp of baking powder
1 tsp of salt
8 Tbsp of chilled butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk
Method:
Preheat oven to 425F
In large bowl whisk together flour, salt and baking powder.
Next, using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour, till the mixture resembles a course meal.
Mix in buttermilk with a wooden spoon.
Add flour to a clean surface and on the rolling-pin and roll out the dough to about a 1″ thickness–this will yield 4 large biscuits. I wanted thinner biscuits ans more of them so I rolled it thinner to about 1/2″ thickness.
Cut out rounds of desired size and arrange on a baking sheet.
Bake for about 15-20 mins.
Serve with your choice of sides, for me, honey, butter and blueberries.
YUM!
This Southerner thinks you have the biscuit-touch! So lovely they glow. Wish i could have breakfast at your house this weekend!

Mmm, they look amazing! Light, fluffy and perfect. Honey and blueberries sound great with them. I’d be tempted to serve mine with maple syrup. 🙂
