SKILLET BISCUITS



Skillet Biscuits image

This recipe is more about the technique than the ingredients. I've added a bit more description since the first review. Making biscuits in a skillet rather than the oven is something I picked up from Joy of Cooking. It's a great alternative when you just don't want to heat up the kitchen by turning on the oven. Any rolled biscuit dough will do. NOTE: The texture may be a bit different when the biscuits are made on the stovetop, sometimes mine are a bit more dense than when baked, but they taste really good. I'm including the buttermilk biscuit recipe from Joy of Cooking, which is also wonderful and tender when rolled and baked. Yield is approximate, depending on the recipe you end up using.

Time 30m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 3/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup shortening or 5 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Mix together dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Cut in shortening or butter.
  • Add and lightly mix buttermilk.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 1/2 minute.
  • Pat the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
  • Cut with a biscuit cutter (or knife, depending on what shape you like).
  • If you want to bake the biscuits, bake 10-12 minutes at 450.
  • For skillet biscuits:.
  • Cook the biscuits on a lightly greased hot skillet/griddle about 1 inch apart.
  • Use your best judgement as to the heat - I generally use a more moderate flame and brown biscuits 3 to 4 minutes each side, though the original recipe says to brown them for 5-7 minutes each side over high heat.
  • As mentioned above - the biscuits will not be light and fluffy like with baked biscuits - so don't wait for them to rise and be puffy. They will be more dense.
  • The best approach is to keep an eye on them and turn them when they are browned and dry-looking on one side before turning them over.

1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Two 15-ounce cans black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce

3/4 cup soy, almond or rice milk
1/3 cup sliced scallions
1 cup vegan margarine, at room temperature
1/4 cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat and saute the onions and green peppers until soft. Add the collard greens, garlic, cumin, chili powder, cinnamon, cayenne and salt and saute a few minutes.
  • Stir in the black-eyed peas, tomato sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and 1 cup water and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes.

Using a floured 2 1/2-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut the biscuits out and place them on a baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with some melted margarine and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the biscuits from the oven, brush again with melted margarine and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  • In a mixing bowl, using a whisk or electric mixer, whip the margarine with the maple syrup until light and fluffy. Refrigerate until serving.

Yield 10-12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the cornbread:
1 1/2 cups fine-grind white cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup grapeseed, vegetable, or other neutral oil
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
For the dressing:
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, plus more for pan
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 large celery stalks, finely chopped
2 1/4 tsp. kosher salt, divided
4 biscuits (about 12 oz. total), such as Fluffy Cathead Biscuits
2 Tbsp. ground dried sage
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs
3 1/2 cups turkey stock or low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • For the cornbread:
  • Place a large cast-iron skillet in oven; preheat to 425°F. Whisk cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to combine. Whisk egg, buttermilk, and oil in a medium bowl to combine. Create a well in dry ingredients. Pour buttermilk mixture into well and whisk until no dry spots remain.
  • Remove cast-iron skillet from oven (be careful; pan will be very hot). Add butter to pan and swirl to coat. Pour batter into pan and spread evenly. Bake cornbread until edges are golden brown and top is golden, 20-25 minutes.
  • Immediately turn cornbread out onto a wire rack so bottom stays crisp. Let cool slightly, then invert onto another wire rack and let cool completely.
  • Do Ahead: Cornbread can be baked 5 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature, or freeze up to 3 months.
  • For the dressing:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a large cast-iron skillet; set aside. Melt remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened and just starting to take on some color, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, tear cornbread into roughly 1" pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Tear biscuits into slightly smaller pieces and add to same bowl.
  • Scrape vegetable mixture into bowl with bread and add sage, pepper, and remaining 2 tsp. salt. Gently toss to combine. Whisk eggs, stock, and vinegar in a medium bowl to combine. Drizzle over cornbread mixture and gently toss again to incorporate. Spoon dressing into prepared pan and bake until set and browned and crisp across the top, 45-55 minutes.
  • Do Ahead: Dressing can be baked 1 day ahead. Let cool, then cover with foil and chill. Reheat in a 350°F oven, covered, until warmed through, 25-30 minutes, before serving.

IRON SKILLET BUTTERMILK BISCUITS



Iron Skillet Buttermilk Biscuits image

Close as I can get to the way that Momma made Biscuits in Talladega. She always had a special bowl just for Biscuits. I liked it when she cooked Fried Bologna and Put a Sharp Cheddar Cheese Slice in the middle and served them for Breakfast. We were poor, we just didn't know it!

Provided by Linda Faye Lober

Categories     Biscuits

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c gold medal self rising flour
2 Tbsp clabber baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar (optional)
1/2 c crisco (regular)
2/3 c buttermilk

Steps:

  • 1. Sift together dry ingredients, flour , baking powder, salt,(sugar optional), in a large bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup for rolling dough on counter.
  • 2. After Dry Ingredients are sifted, make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Start incorporating the Crisco and Milk until blended. Use your hands (take off rings first). Then when all are blended add flour.
  • 3. DO NOT OVER WORK THE MIXTURE, THE BISCUITS WILL BECOME TOUGH!
  • 4. Spread reserved flour on counter and spread into about a 12 inch rectangle. Dump bowl of biscuits on the floured surface. Gently knead and hand roll into a twelve inch circle. Cut with biscuit cutter or top of clean glass. You can also, pinch off the biscuits from the bowl and roll in palm of your hands. This is the way that Momma did them. Personal Preference.
  • 5. Make sure that you have already heated your oven to 450 degrees. Use Real Butter to Grease the Inside of your Iron Skillet really well.
  • 6. Place the finished biscuit dough into the iron skillet, crowded together. Should make at least 10 nice sized biscuits. I butter tops of Biscuits one they are removed from the oven. Let them rest for 1 minute and then serve on platter or plate.
  • 7. Serve with Apple butter and or Jelly, or just slather with butter and top with honey. Fix you a pan of sausage gravy, they are a staple dish around here. Enjoy! Happy Cooking

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flaky layers in the biscuits. Cut the butter into small pieces and chill it before adding it to the dough.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together.
  • Let the dough rest: Chilling the dough before baking helps the biscuits rise and develop flavor.
  • Use a hot skillet: A hot skillet helps the biscuits cook evenly and get a crispy bottom.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: Give the biscuits enough space to rise and cook evenly.
  • Bake until golden brown: Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown on top and cooked through in the center.
