Flaky Southern-style biscuits with an herby addition!

Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American, Southern
Servings: 6 biscuits
Author: admin
Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 c. All-purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Salt
  • 1 tsp. Granulated Sugar
  • 8 tbsp. Unsalted Butter (chilled or frozen--grated)
  • 1 c. Buttermilk* (or 1 tbsp. vinegar + a little under a cup of milk)
  • 1/4 c. Chopped Rosemary and Chives
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.

  2. Chop your rosemary and chives to desired size. Mix your dry ingredients in a medium to large bowl (flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar). Add in your chopped herbs and grated, cold butter. Mix until you have a consistency similar to wet sand. 

  3. Create a well in the middle of your flour mixture. Add the milk slowly and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Pour the dough out onto a floured surface. 

  4. Roll the dough into a rectangular shape, with a height of about half an inch. Fold in half lengthwise and roll again about 3-5 times, creating an effect of flaky layers. After you have your desired number of layers, use a biscuit cutter or another 2 to 3-inch circular cutter to create rounds. Re-roll excess dough as necessary to minimize waste. 

  5. Lay the biscuit dough rounds next to each other on a prepared baking sheet, just touching to help them rise properly. Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned. Serve while still warm with your choice of gravy, butter, and/or jam!
