Bisquick Buttermilk Biscuits Recipes

Buttermilk biscuits are comfort food, no matter where you come from. Of course, if you were raised in a southern home, you probably have a special type of appreciation for them.

May 14th is National Buttermilk Biscuit Day. Buttermilk is a common ingredient to use in biscuits, especially in the South. They are typically enjoyed with butter; served with breakfast and accompanied by maple syrup, molasses, jam, jelly, or honey.

Since the soft and moist texture of these biscuits could easily absorb gravies, and they were inexpensive, they soon became very popular. Besides helping break down gluten, buttermilk gives biscuits a moist, soft texture.

These biscuits are light, flaky, and buttery! The dough, unbaked, can be frozen and baked straight from the freezer.
I prefer to eat these just as they are,maybe with a little butter, but they also make a nice base for poached eggs topped with bacon, sausage, and cheese for a better-tasting version of a well-known breakfast sandwich.

Southern Buttermilk Biscuits

Southern Buttermilk Biscuits

Fluffy, buttery, and golden describe these southern buttermilk biscuits! These biscuits are so good, I could eat them every day, although my waistline wouldn't appreciate it. Although biscuit making is relatively easy, it's considered an art form in my family. True biscuit perfection relies mainly on the look and feel of the dough, which you will master in due time. One crucial step in making a foolproof biscuit iskeeping your butter extremely cold... the colder, the better! Also, don't overmix, as you will end up with a dry and crumbly biscuit. Keeping these tipsin mind, I have faith that you will end up with a beautiful batch of buttermilk biscuits.

Cheese And Herb Buttermilk Biscuits

One thing southern folks love is their buttermilk biscuits. My husband tells me this all the time! This homemade buttermilk biscuit recipe takes just ten minutes to mix, probably making it one of the easiest biscuit recipes you'll ever make! Don’t run out to the store tobuy buttermilk, just place a tablespoon of vinegar in a one-cup measuring cup and fill it with milk. Let the mixture stand for at least five minutes before using it to allow the milk to sour.
