GREAT biscuit recipe. This is a copycat for Popeye's buttermilk biscuits. Please don't use salted butter in this recipe (or, indeed, in any of your baking). From Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1/4 cup milk |
melted butter, to brush on top |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2. Mix together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl. 3. Slice cold butter into cubes and use a pastry knife or potato masher to cut butter into dry mixture until no large chunks of butter remain. 4. Add buttermilk and milk and stir with a spoon until dough forms. 5. Roll out to 1/2-inch thick on a floured surface. 6. Cut biscuits with a 3-inch biscuit cutter and arrange on a lightly-greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. 7. Bake for 22 to 24 minutes or until tops begin to turn light brown. 8. Remove biscuits from the oven and cool for a couple of minutes, then brush each biscuit top with melted butter. |
