Do you love warm, flaky biscuits right out of the oven? The carb lover in me sure does. As much as I would like to say "no thank you, I'll pass on the bread", the card carrying no carb left behind me says, "yes please pass those flaky buttery pillows of goodness."
I was so thrilled when my friend Cassie agreed to come over and show her no fail techniques for the best buttery buttermilk biscuits ever. Pulling these biscuits out of the oven, tearing them open to watch steam escape, then slathering them with even more butter (and jam if you please) was the ultimate in a biscuit making experience.
Butter – Cassie recommends a really good quality, high fat butter such as Kerrygold. This higher fat butter lends to a beautifully flaky biscuit and European butters seem to have the fat content that is preferred for things like biscuits, pastries and pie crusts.
Flour – Cassie recommends King Arthur flour for consistent, successful results in baking.
The best thing, well almost the best thing, about these biscuits is their simplicity.
Biscuits are so ridiculously easy to make you won't believe it. Cassie has such great techniques for making perfect biscuits, but each technique is quite easy and there is actually nothing, and I mean nothing difficult about making these flaky treats. That's probably why biscuits have been such a favorite among home bakers for so long. They're just so darn good, and there's not a whole lot of effort into making them the wonderful beautiful biscuits that they are. It's all in the process.
It's simply cutting very, very, very, very cold butter into flour, adding a bit of salt, baking powder, mixing all together with just the tips of your fingers, then gently patting or rolling out, cutting them into the shapes you desire, (or making drop biscuits right into an iron skillet) and baking them to golden perfection.
If you want to be the best biscuit baker you can be, watch the YouTube instructional video for all the great tips and tricks Cassie provides. Your friends, family, and anyone you bake these for will thank you. And then they'll want you to make some more!
