Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 12 to 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, 8 tablespoons cubed and chilled and 2 tablespoons at room temperature
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 to 3 tablespoons molasses or honey

Steps:

  • For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and the chilled, cubed butter. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal. Alternatively, combine the flour and chilled butter in a food processor and pulse to combine until it resembles coarse meal, then transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • Stir in the baking powder, salt, sugar and baking soda. Form a well in the center of the flour and pour in the buttermilk. Mix with a fork until all of the ingredients are incorporated and the dough begins to shape into a ball. (The dough will be slightly dry.)
  • Dust a clean work surface with flour, coat your palms, and rub some on a rolling pin. Turn out the dough onto the work surface. Knead the dough for 1 to 2 minutes, folding it over onto itself each time. Pat the dough into a rectangle and then roll the dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Dip a 3-inch biscuit cutter or the rim of a 3-inch-wide glass in flour, and then cut out the biscuits. Alternatively, use a knife to cut the biscuits into 3-inch squares. Reshape the leftover dough into a ball, roll it out again, and cut out more biscuits. Repeat this process until the dough is gone.
  • Place the biscuits on the baking sheet and bake until the tops are golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. While the biscuits are still hot, brush the biscuits with the 2 tablespoons softened butter.
  • For the butter: Stir or mash the butter and molasses or honey together to combine, leaving a few streaks of molasses visible.
  • Serve the flavored butter with the warm biscuits.

Time 45m

Yield 21 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup lard, plus 2 teaspoons for greasing
5 1/2 cups biscuit mix with butter flakes, such as Atkinson's
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease three 9-inch pie tins with 2 teaspoons lard.
  • Put the biscuit mix in a bowl and make a well in the middle of the flour. Put the lard in the well and add the buttermilk. Gently mix the buttermilk and lard into the flour with your hands until a soft dough forms. If the dough is dry, add a little more buttermilk; if it's too wet, add a little more flour. Coat your hands well with flour and gently form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball. Place the dough balls in the pie tins, 7 per tin. Gently press each ball down to flatten.
  • Bake until lightly browned on top and the biscuits release from the tins when you give them a shake, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and rub the tops of the biscuits with the butter or margarine. Serve hot!

GRANDMA GERALDINE'S FAMOUS BISCUITS



Grandma Geraldine's Famous Biscuits image

Eddie Jackson can pinpoint the moment he began falling in love with food: the first time he rolled out homemade biscuit dough with his grandmother Geraldine. She was the head chef at the high school in his hometown, Americus, GA, for more than 45 years, and as a kid Eddie spent mornings in the cafeteria, helping her prep. "Seeing how excited the kids would get as they came through the breakfast line to get my grandmother's biscuits stuck with me," Eddie says. The women in his family have passed down the recipe for generations. This recipe works for drop biscuits or cutouts. "My grandmother would do both," Eddie says.
