Rye Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Whisk together the rye flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 1 1/2 cups of the all-purpose flour in a large bowl. Cut in the butter with your hands until you have pea-size crumbs and the flour is coated with butter. Stir in the buttermilk.
• Dust a work surface with the remaining 1/4 cup flour.
• Pat the dough into a rectangle. Fold the dough over on itself a few times and pat out to a 1/2-inch thickness. Punch out 6 biscuits with a 2 3/4-inch ring mold or biscuit cutter and place in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Serve with Strawberry Jam.
• Add the strawberries, sugar and lemon zest and juice to a medium skillet set over medium-high heat and stir until thickened and a jammy consistency, 9 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (hot oven).
• Sift flour, baking powder and salt together.
• Cut in the shortening.
• Mix in egg and milk to make a light dough.
• Roll out on a lightly floured board and cut into biscuit shapes.
• Place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
• Bake until browned on top, about 15 minutes.
