Biscuits
These sound good, can be served with butter, honey, jam, or gravy (which would be my preference). These are easy with no kneading. On my to cook list so I can try these out. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/3 cup butter, cold, shredded
- 1 cup buttermilk, OR use the shortcut, OR regular milk
- butter, couple of tablespoons, melted, to brush the tops
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220 C, get out a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, cut in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Gradually stir in the buttermilk until a soft dough forms and pulls away from the side of the bowl.
- Turn out dough onto a floured surface and pat or roll dough out to 1 inch thick, then cut biscuits with a large cutter or juice glass dipped in flour. Repeat until all dough is used. Brush off the excess flour, and place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Do not twist the cutter or glass, that will seal the edges and prevent rising.
- Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter, bake for 13-15 minutes until the edges begin to brown.
