Kentucky Biscuits
Description
This is a great recipe, different than the usual biscuit. Serve piping hot with butter, jam, or honey.
Ingredients
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
•
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
•
1 dash salt
•
1 tablespoon white sugar
•
1/2 cup butter
•
3/4 cup buttermilk
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Cut in 1/2 cup butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in the buttermilk. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 2 minutes. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet, roll into a 6x6 inch square, and cut into 12 even sections. Do not separate.
3
Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center of the square comes out clean. Separate into biscuits, and serve hot.
