If you make these biscuits, you may never need to go out for breakfast again - all these need are a couple fried eggs, a side of grits and a cup of hot coffee. These biscuits are amazing. I've made them multiple times, and I keep returning to the recipe again and again. So, I'm putting it here for posterity.Buttermilk biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 Tblsp baking powder
1 tsp. kosher salt
6 Tblsp. butter or earth balance substitute
1 cup buttermilk (Make your own! Add 1 Tblsp. white vinegar to a cup of milk, let sit for 5 min).
**Tip to getting these just right - don't handle the dough too much. Don't use a rolling pin.
Preheat oven to 450.
Mix dry ingredients in a food processor. Throw in the butter and pulse until crumbly. Mix in the buttermilk. Mixture should be sticky. Turn onto a floured surface and pat and fold the dough over about five times. Pat it out (do not roll it) to about 1 inch thickness. Cut out biscuit shapes with a glass or cookie cutter, place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. (Place so they are touching each other if you like them soft).
Bake 10-12 minutes until light golden brown. Enjoy!
