Tips:
- Use fresh corn for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Be sure to drain the corn well before adding it to the batter. This will help to prevent the biscuits from being too wet.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
- Bake the biscuits at a high temperature. This will help them to rise and brown properly.
- Serve the biscuits warm with butter and honey. This is the classic way to enjoy corn biscuits, but you can also serve them with other toppings, such as gravy, sausage, or eggs.
Conclusion:
Corn biscuits with bacon and sage are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover corn. With their sweet and savory flavor, these biscuits are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
