Yield Makes 12 small biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup milk (see headnote)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Butter or line a baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a fork or 2 table knives, combine the butter and flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Slowly add the milk, stirring with a fork, to the desired consistency.
  • For softer biscuits, drop 2 tablespoons of the dough onto the lined baking sheet. For firmer biscuits, turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and gently knead just to bring the dough together. Carefully roll out the dough about 3/4 inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter or sturdy glass, cut about 12 biscuits, rerolling any scraps. Place on the lined baking sheet. (The biscuits can be frozen at this point. Freeze on the baking sheet, then remove to a resealable container or plastic bag for easier storage.) Bake the biscuits for 13 to 15 minutes (add 3 to 4 additional minutes for frozen ones), until golden brown. Cool slightly and serve warm.

BUTTER SWIM BISCUITS



Butter Swim Biscuits image

Making biscuits usually involves cutting chilled butter into flour and racing against time before the dough warms up. This recipe throws all the rules out the window for the easiest biscuits you'll ever make! A simple buttermilk dough gets mixed together and spread directly into a baking pan -- no rolling pin, refrigeration or biscuit cutter needed. The trick is pouring in a stick of melted butter that submerges the dough (hence the name!) and seeps in as the biscuits bake for tender, flaky perfection. While the biscuits are still hot, a drizzle of honey and sprinkle of flaky salt add just the right sweet and salty accents. Served warm with butter and jam, they're absolute heaven.

Time 45m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups buttermilk
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons honey
Flaky sea salt, for serving
Jam, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and kosher salt in a large bowl and whisk together. Pour in the buttermilk and use a wooden spoon to stir into a thick dough without overworking it -- some dry spots are ok.
  • Pour the butter into an 8-by-8-inch baking pan. Scrape the dough into the pan and spread to the edges. Use a butter knife to slice the dough into 9 equal squares. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and drizzle the honey over the top. Sprinkle with sea salt and let cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving with butter and jam.

EASY PAN BUTTER BISCUITS RECIPE



Easy Pan Butter Biscuits Recipe image

If I can promise you anything it's that these pan butter biscuits are out of this world amazing!

Provided by Camille Beckstrand

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup unsalted butter ((1 stick))
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1½ Tablespoons baking powder
2 Tablespoons sugar
1½ teaspoons salt
1¾ cup buttermilk ((see note below))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Slice the butter into a couple of thin slices and spread in the bottom of an 8x8" baking dish.
  • Place the butter in the baking dish into the oven while it preheats to allow the butter to melt.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • Carefully pour in the buttermilk, mixing until the flour mixture is just moistened (be careful not to overmix!).
  • Remove melted butter pan from the oven.
  • Place the dough in the melted butter pan and spread it evenly in the pan with your fingers. As you spread the dough out to the corners, the butter will start to surround the dough and flow on top of the dough (which is what you want!).
  • Cut the dough into 9 equal squares (you don't have to do this step, but it makes it easier to pull apart later and allows the butter to soak into all the edges of each piece).
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes (start checking at 20 minutes) or until the biscuits are golden brown.
  • Serve hot with honey butter or your favorite toppings.

250g salted butter softened
½ tsp vanilla extract
75g icing sugar
250g plain flour

Steps:

  • Pipe the dough in small 5cm swirls on one large or two smaller baking trays lined with baking parchment, spacing them apart to allow for them to spread. Bake for 15-20 mins until pale golden.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter. This will help keep the biscuits light and flaky. If you need to soften the butter, do so by grating it or cutting it into small pieces and letting it sit at room temperature for a few minutes.
  • Work the dough quickly. Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Roll the dough out evenly. This will help the biscuits bake evenly.
  • Cut the biscuits with a sharp knife. This will help prevent the edges from becoming ragged.
  • Bake the biscuits at a high temperature. This will help them rise quickly and evenly.
  • Brush the biscuits with melted butter before baking. This will help them brown and give them a crispy crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm. They are best when eaten fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk biscuits are a classic Southern comfort food. They are light and flaky, with a slightly tangy flavor. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make delicious buttermilk biscuits at home.
