Maple Thyme Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees with racks set in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
• In a small saucepan, mix together maple syrup and thyme sprigs; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Remove from heat and let maple syrup glaze cool to room temperature.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, baking soda, and thyme leaves. Add butter and cut into flour mixture using a pastry cutter or blend using your fingers until pea-sized lumps remain.
• Make a well in the center and add buttermilk. Stir using a fork or wooden spoon until large clumps form; do not allow a dough to form in the bowl. Turn mixture out onto a lightly floured work surface, and using lightly floured hands, knead two or three times just until a dough forms.
• Pat dough into a 1-inch-thick square. Using a sharp knife, cut 2-inch-square biscuits and transfer to prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush tops with maple syrup glaze; reserve remaining glaze for serving. Transfer to oven and bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Serve warm with butter and remaining maple syrup glaze.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and, if desired, pepper. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times., Pat or roll dough to 1-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 15-17 minutes., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking into crumbles. Stir in flour until blended; gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until sauce is thickened, 4-6 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Serve with warm biscuits.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk and syrup just until moistened. Fold in pecans., Turn onto a floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Roll out to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter., Place 2 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with milk; sprinkle with remaining cinnamon-sugar. , Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Mix together the first three ingredients. Melt 1/4 cup margarine and combine with the soymilk and vinegar. Pour the soymilk mixture into dry ingredients and mix well. May need to add extra soymilk if it's too dry.
• Form into 7 biscuits. To make maple syrup mixture add the maple syrup and 1/4 cup margarine together. Pour maple syrup mixture into pie pan and place biscuits into pan in tortoise shell pattern. Bake at 375 for 12-14 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Prepare baking sheet with a light coating of cooking spray.
• Sift together the flours, salt, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir in the thyme. Cut in the butter, then take up the flour and roll briskly between the palms of your hands so the mixture has the consistency of coarse cornmeal. This step can also be done in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, using the pulse action.
• Stir the milk and yogurt (or buttermilk) into the mixture. Lightly flour your hands. Using your hands, bring the dough together until it forms a lump. Use care in not over keading the dough (as you would with bread) as that will result in hockey pucks not biscuits. It will be slightly sticky, that's okay. Again, the less you work the dough, the lighter your biscuits will be.
• Roll out to a thickness of about 3/4 inch and cut into squares, triangles, or rounds. For bite-size biscuits, cut into squares, then cut the squares diag onally into small triangles.
• Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until they're just lightly browned. Caution, the smaller your biscuits, the shorter the baking time.
• Serve warm.
