Buttermilk Biscuits by Chef Zachary
Buttermilk Biscuits by Chef Zachary
Serves 12
Ingredients
- 2 cups Greenwillow Grains Pastry Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 2 tbsp Brown Sugar (or substitute thereof...if using honey or maple syrup
- compensate for the added liquid by taking 1 tbsp of buttermilk out)
- 2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1 cup Butter
- 1 cup Cultured Buttermilk
Directions
- Mix dry ingredients, sift for more consistent lighter texture. Grate butter into flour mixture, then break up into smaller crumbs with fingers. Make a hole in the center of the flour and cut butter, and pour in the buttermilk, stirring the dry and wet together, just mixing.
- Immediately spoon 12 portions on to an un-greased cookie sheet and place in oven at 400°F. These wetter dough biscuits will settle considerably, so give them room to grow!
- Remove from oven after 15-20 minutes or when golden brown.

Can one substitute oil for any of the butter in the biscuit recipe? I don’t think I could sleep at night using 2 sticks of butter to make 12 biscuits!

I’d say go for it! Although since we have not tried it I can’t say what kind of results you’ll get. Best of luck!
