Easy Biscuits



Easy Biscuits

Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
1 - 8" X 8" Cake Pan lined with Parchment Paper, hanging 1" over 2 sides and well buttered, or a Silicone baking sheet hanging over the side.
1 Sheet Pan
Melted Butter, set aside.
Additional Flour, (1C)
Butter, Maple Syrup or Gravy to serve with them.

In a Large Mixing Bowl:
2 1/3 C Self Rising Flour
8 tsp Sugar
Whisk well.

8 TBS Frozen Butter  (1 whole stick)  Grated on a Box Grater. ( Grate it directly into the bowl).
Stir gently with a Wooden Spoon to Coat all of the Butter.

Add:
1 1/3 C Buttermilk
Gently stir just to combine. (don't over mix the dough)

On the Sheet Pan:
Add additional 1C of Flour and shake it to distribute evenly just to cover the pan.

Use a Wooden Spoon or a Silicone Spatula and scoop even sized
portions of the Dough onto the Sheet Pan. Remember that you'll need 16 portions. (only place 6 portions at a time on the Sheet Pan.)
Avoid having them touch each other.
Gently shake the pan.

Pick up the Biscuits, one at a time and gently toss them back and forth in the palm of your hand. (have your hands floured)
Place them in the Pan, close together so they touch each other.
You should be able to get 16 Biscuits in the Pan.  (4 X 4 rows)

Bake 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, brush with  reserved Melted Butter.
Return to Bake for an additional 5 minutes.
They should become Golden Brown.

Remove the Pan, lift the Parchment Paper, transfer it to a Flat Surface.
Break the Biscuits apart.
Serve hot with Butter, Maple Syrup, or Gravy.

Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
