Time 30m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional for sprinkling
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
5 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 to 3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1 cup buttermilk
12 thick slices Virginia ham or smoked ham, each about 2 1/2 inches round or square

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder. Mix well. Add the butter and buttermilk, and knead lightly by hand to make a cohesive dough.
  • Sprinkle a work surface with flour, and turn the dough onto it. Knead with the heel of the hand about six times; do not overhandle. Roll out into a flat circle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a Champagne flute or biscuit cutter to press into 12 circles about 2 to 2 1/2 inches in diameter. If desired, reroll the scraps of dough to make into biscuits.
  • Arrange the biscuits on a cookie sheet, and bake until lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly. To serve, split the biscuits in half and butter each cut side. Insert a slice of ham between the halves, and close. If desired, reheat in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.

These biscuits are a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham leftover from Easter and this is a great way to use it up.

The biscuits didn't turn out well for me. I think I overmixed the dough.

I thought the biscuits were a bit bland. I would have liked more ham and cheese in them.

The biscuits were good, but I found them to be a little dry. Next time I'll add some extra butter to the dough.

I'm not a big fan of ham, but I loved these biscuits. The ham flavor was subtle and the biscuits were so light and fluffy.
