Moms Buttermilk Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk; knead dough gently. Roll out to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Freeze option: Freeze cooled biscuits in a resealable freezer container. To use, heat in a preheated 350° oven 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• For 9 thicker biscuits, grease a square 8" or 9" pan. For 12 biscuits, grease a 10x13 pan.
• Sift dry ingredients. Cut in shortening with pastry cutter or with a fork.
• When shortening is incorporated, add buttermilk and mix with a fork, being careful not to overmix.
• Sprinkle flour on dough board. Knead dough until smooth, no more than 8-10 times.
• For 12 biscuits, roll dough to about 5/8" thick. For 9 biscuits (8x8 pan) roll dough to about 1" thick.
• Place in pan and bake for about 15 minutes, or until done. You can brush with melted butter before cooking if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Rub 2 tablespoons of the cold butter into the flour with your fingertips until completely absorbed. Work the remaining 5 tablespoons of cold butter into the flour with your fingertips until pea-sized bits of butter remain. Use a rubber spatula to stir the buttermilk into the flour until the mixture comes together into a shaggy dough.
• Dust a cutting board or work surface with flour and turn the dough out onto it. Pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Fold dough in thirds, like a letter, and then pat into a 3/4-inch thick rectangle. Cut biscuits out using a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter and put on the prepared baking sheet. Press together the remaining scraps of dough and cut out more biscuits. Brush the biscuit tops with buttermilk.
• Bake until the tops are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool on the pan at least 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place heavy cast-iron skillet into oven to preheat. Chill a large mixing bowl, pastry cutter, flour and 1 stick butter in the freezer 15 minutes before assembling the biscuits.
• Add the flour to the chilled mixing bowl. Working quickly, cut 1 stick butter into the flour using the chilled pastry cutter (or your fingers); the goal here is pea-size balls of butter. In batches, add in the buttermilk until the dough is cohesive yet still moist. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and lightly press into a 1-inch-thick round. Using a biscuit cutter or business end of a dry-measuring cup, cut out 8 biscuits. (Use the extra dough to cook up a big piece of shortcake for dessert....strawberry shortcake!)
• Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the oil. Place the dough rounds into the hot skillet, right up against each other, and brush with the 3 tablespoons melted butter. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
• Mix together flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Use a pastry cutter to incorporate butter or lard into the mixture until crumbly. Stir in the buttermilk, just until it comes together.
• Turn the dough onto a flat, floured surface. Knead the dough gently, folding it in half and then pressing into itself 4-5 times. Press the dough lightly until it is 3/4 thick. Cut into 2 rounds.
• Place on baking sheet and bake 10-12 minutes until tops are golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line large cookie sheet with parchment.
• Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl.
• Cut in butter using pastry blender or fingers until mixture resembles fine meal.
• Beat buttermilk and egg in a small bowl to blend; add to dry ingredients and mix until just combined - do not overmix.
• Roll dough out on lightly-floured surface to 1 inch thick round.
• Cut out biscuits using floured 2-inch cutter.
• Gather and re-roll scraps; cut out additional rounds.
• Transfer to cookie sheet, spacing 1 inch apart.
• Bake until golden-brown, 25-30 minutes.
• Cool biscuits slightly before serving with lots of butter.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Roll to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Pour chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and pepper into large pot. Whisk until blended, then add drained Swanson chicken and carrots. Bring to a boil and simmer until carrots are tender (about 30-40 minutes).
• Blend in shortening with fork until crumbly.
• Mix baking soda into buttermilk.
• Mix buttermilk mixture into flour mixture and blend until all ingredients are moist.
• Set dough aside and add the frozen peas to the stew. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Add whipping cream to chicken stew and stir while bringing to boil.
• After stew has reached a boil, drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough into stew.
• Reduce heat to medium-high and cook for 5 minutes. Gently flip dumplings over and cook for another 5 -7 minutes or so. Serve and prepare to say "yum"!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk; stir just until the dough clings together. , Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently, 10-12 times. Roll to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. round biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, 11-12 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450.
• In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cream of tartar, and sugar.
• Cut butter into pieces, then cut into flour mixture. Real butter is very hard, and I found that it was much easier to use my fingers to squeeze the butter into the flour.
• When the mixture is well combined and crumbly, make a well in the center and pour in buttermilk.
• Using a fork, stir, starting at the outside of the bowl and blending inward.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead a few times, just until the dough is completely combined and holds together well.
• With a rolling pin, roll dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter.
• Grease a cookie sheet with crisco and place the biscuits 1-2 inches apart on the sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface.
