This Southern butter biscuits recipe was handed down to me by my mom. Great all by themselves with extra butter or with jam, honey, molasses, or gravy.

Southern Butter Biscuits

all-purpose flour

Tbsp baking powder

salt

milk ((regular

Preheat oven to 400 F.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.&nbsp; Add butter in smallish pieces.&nbsp;

With your hands (or a pastry blender), combine flour mixture and butter until butter is pea sized and mixture is crumbly.

Pour in milk and combine with a wooden spoon until well incorporated, taking care not to over mix.

Turn out onto a floured surface and roll out dough to about 3/4 inch thick.&nbsp;

Cut out biscuits with biscuit cutter or cookie cutter.  Add each to ungreased cookie sheet or iron skillet.  Make sure that biscuits touch for higher rise during baking.

Bake for 10 minutes or until browned.

With a smooth apple and custard filling, these classic cream biscuits are a winning treat!

Apple & custard creams

Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, roughly chopped

(55 grams) caster sugar

(60 milliliters) milk

tsp vanilla extract

Biscuits for dessert? You betcha. These are great with that morning cup of coffee or for a quick and easy dessert any time of the day. They might even go well after a meal of fried chicken. Smile.

Blueberry Biscuits Recipe

Blueberries,

Self-Rising Flour, sifted

Tablespoons Lard

Tablespoon Granulated Sugar

Buttermilk

Confectioner’s Sugar

Vanilla Flavoring

Tablespoon Milk, maybe a few drops more

Rinse fresh berries under cold running water. Set aside to drain.

Cut the lard into the flour until it’s about pea sized pieces.

Make a well in the center of the flour. Add the buttermilk.

Stir with your hand, combining the flour and milk to make the dough.

Turn the ball of dough out onto a parchment paper sheet on your countertop.

Knead the dough a couple of turns, adding more flour so it’s not sticking to your counter or fingers.

Gently press the dough out until it’s about ¼ inch thick.

Sprinkle the cup of blueberries over the top of the dough.

Lightly press the berries into the dough.

Fold the top half of the dough down over the bottom half.

Gently press the dough out until it’s about ¾ inch thick.

Place biscuits in a lightly greased skillet.

Bake at 500F degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned on top.

Remove from oven when done. Place on wire rack to cool.

Brush the tops with butter once you remove them from the oven.

Place confectioner’s sugar in a small mixing bowl.

Gradually add milk until icing is of desired consistency.

Drizzle icing over warm biscuits. Serve while warm.

These Sweet Potato Biscuits are the perfect way to start the day!

Sweet Potato Biscuits

potato

honey or sugar

baking powder

cinnamon

nutmeg

butter (softened)

buttermilk

Whisk together the flour, sugar or honey, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl.  Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Add the mashed sweet potatoes and buttermilk. Stir to combine all ingredients and turn out onto a floured surface.  

Cut out with a biscuit cutter. (I use a 14- ounce size tin can to cut out these biscuits). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and bake in preheated 450- degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Can brush the tops with melted butter. It makes 10 to 12 biscuits depending on how large you make them.

7 UP biscuits are a Southern biscuit made with a lemon-lime soda, which adds a slightly sweet flavor and helps the dough rise. The biscuits are light and fluffy with a crispy crust due to being cooked in butter. No buttermilk needed. A perfect addition to any dinner table.

7 UP Biscuits

flour

butter

sour cream

7 up (or Sprite)

Preheat oven to 425º

In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.

Add cold butter cut into cubes and cut it into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or fork. Next add sour cream and cut into flour mixture.

Add 7 UP and mix just until combined, add additional sprite if it is too dry. The dough should be a little sticky. Roll out the dough into a rectangle and cut into 3 strips, stack them on top of each other and roll out again into a rectangle.

Pour melted butter into an 8 x 8 inch baking dish or a cast iron skillet.

Cut the biscuits into squares or circles and place in the pan with the melted butter. Use a pastry brush to brush some of the butter in the pan over the biscuits.
