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.
GRANDMA WILLIAMS' BISCUITS
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!
Tips:
- Use fresh honey. Fresh honey has a more delicate flavor and aroma than store-bought honey. If you can, try to find local honey.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the biscuits to rise and have a more tender texture.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. A hot oven will help the biscuits to rise quickly and evenly.
- Brush the biscuits with honey butter before serving. Honey butter is a delicious and easy way to add extra flavor to the biscuits.
Conclusion:
Honey biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The next time you are looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these honey biscuits a try. You won't be disappointed!
