Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour
3 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
3/4 cup COLD butter
1 egg
1 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • The secret to excellent biscuits is COLD BUTTER. Really cold. Many times the biscuit dough gets worked so much that the butter softens before the biscuits even go in the oven. Try cutting the butter into small pieces and stick back in the fridge pulling out only when ready to incorporate into the dough.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Use a pastry cutter to cut cold butter into flour mixture. Don't go too crazy here - you want to see small, pea-sized pieces of butter throughout the dough.
  • Add in the milk and egg and mix just until the ingredients are combined. The dough will be sticky but don't keep working it. You should be able to see the butter pieces in the dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a generously floured surface. Sprinkle some flour on to the top of dough so it won't stick to your fingers and knead 10-15 times. If the dough is super sticky just sprinkle on some additional flour.
  • Pat the dough out to 3/4 - 1 inch thickness and cut with a biscuit cutter or glass. I ended up with nine this time but depending on who is snacking on biscuit dough, I can get up to 12 biscuits.
  • Place the biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet or parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.
  • For extra yumminess, brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter...

HEALTHY BREAKFAST COOKIES



Healthy Breakfast Cookies image

Whip up the ultimate grab-and-go morning meal with a recipe for soft and chewy Healthy Breakfast Cookies loaded with fiber and protein.

Provided by Kelly Senyei

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup creamy peanut butter (or other nut butter)
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 1/4 cups quick oats
1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins
2/3 cup chopped nuts, such as almonds, walnuts or pistachios

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, mashed bananas, salt and cinnamon.
  • Add the oats, dried cranberries and nuts and mix until combined. Scoop about 1/4-cup mounds of the cookie dough onto the baking sheet, flattening each cookie slightly. (The cookies will not spread while baking, so you can space them relatively close together.)
  • Bake the cookies for 14 to 16 minutes until they're golden brown but still soft. Remove the cookies from the oven then allow them to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.

EASY HOMEMADE BREAKFAST BISCUITS



Easy Homemade Breakfast Biscuits image

Make a fresh homemade batch of quick and easy biscuits for breakfast or to pair with mashed potatoes and gravy for dinner.

Provided by Jolinda Hackett

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Bread

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for kneading dough)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening (cold)
3/4 cup milk (2% or whole)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 450 F.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder , and the salt.
  • Cut in the shortening using a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Make a well in the dry mixture and add in the milk all at once.
  • Stir together with a fork just until the dough clings together. You want it to still be a bit lumpy; this will help your biscuits be perfectly light and flaky, creating those delectable and airy layers when baking.
  • Lightly flour a clean work surface. Gently knead your biscuit dough just a few times to bring the dough together.
  • Roll out or pat the dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Cut the dough into 2 1/2-inch rounds with a flour dipped biscuit cutter. Be sure to push the cutter straight down, without twisting (this prevents layers from forming). Reroll the dough scraps once more to form additional biscuits.
  • Space each piece of cut dough evenly on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake until the biscuits have risen and are lightly golden brown on top, about 12 minutes.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/3 cup powdered milk
5 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 stick cold salted butter, cut into bits, plus 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) salted butter, melted
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup grated Cheddar
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
8 to 12 breakfast sausage patties
8 to 12 large eggs
Hot sauce, to taste
8 to 12 slices white Cheddar

Steps:

  • For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the flour, powdered milk, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, salt and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter bits and shortening into the dry mixture until blended thoroughly. Mix in the cheese, then fold in the buttermilk until the dough comes together.
  • On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and press into a circle 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. Cut out circles with a biscuit cutter or a glass. Place the biscuits in cast-iron skillets, then brush the tops with the melted butter. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes, then set aside to cool a little.
  • For the sandwiches: Next, add the sausage patties to a skillet over medium heat and fry until cooked through. Set aside and keep warm. In the same skillet, fry the eggs, turning them over to cook the yolks through.
  • Now make a sandwich by cutting a biscuit in half. Put a sausage patty on the bottom half. Top with an egg, some hot sauce and a slice of cheese. Cover with the top and eat, or wrap in foil to keep warm.
