Pop A Top Beer Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Sift together dry ingredients. Cut in butter with a fork or pastry mixer until mixture is consistency of crumbs. Add a quarter cup of the beer, stirring gently to combine, and then add remaining beer and mix gently to make soft, sticky dough. Do not over-mix or biscuits will be tough. Pat dough out on a floured work surface to a thickness of 1/2 - to 3/4-inches and cut into biscuits. Place on baking pan and bake 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Steps:

• In a large bowl sift all dry ingredients together.
• Using a pastry cutter cut in shortening until cornmeal consistancy, then stir in beer.
• Knead lightly, then gather into a large shaped ball and wrap in plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate for 1 or more hours before forming dough.
• Pat the dough into about 1-1/2-inch thickness.
• Cut out with biscuit cutter.
• Place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
• Set oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bake for 10-12 mins, or until golden brown.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; butter a muffin tin.
• In a bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well, adding sugar up to 1/2 cup to your own preference.
• Pour batter into the muffin tin.
• Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden.
• Serve with honey butter (Paula's "honey butter" recipe can be found at RecipeZaar #1149320).

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Melt a little butter in bottom of cast iron skillet (I used 10-inch skillet).
• 2. In a mixing bowl add baking mix, flour and baking powder; whisk to combine. (yes I used baking powder with self-rising flour for a lighter biscuit)
• 3. Grate frozen butter through the large holes of a cheese grater into the flour mixture; toss to combine. NOTE: I used a paper towel to grip butter as I got to the end and it became slippery.
• 4. Stir beer into flour/butter mixture; stir until moistened. Dough will be thick. Add a few more drops if dough is too dry. NOTE: Got the message from my friend Kathy Griffin and what a nice tip: "I made these again this morning, but I didn't want to pop a top at 8 in the morning lol, so I used tonic water, I know the beer gives them a slight different taste and smell, but, the tonic water gave them the same texture. So for anyone that doesn't want to use beer in them try it with tonic water"
• 5. Pat out dough on a floured surface to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut with biscuit cutter (I used 2 1/2-inch cutter). I had enough dough for 12 biscuits.
• 6. Place biscuits in heated skillet, brush melted butter on top if desired (I did). Bake 12 to 14 minutes until lightly browned on top.
