This drop biscuit recipe is a gem! I rarely make biscuits because most recipes involve rolling out the dough, cutting the biscuits, etc. I've tried other drop biscuit recipes before, and the results were always dry, crumbly biscuits. Not these! They are light, fairly moist, and with a great flavor. Plus, they are really easy to make. The recipe comes from: www.simplycooking.wordpress.com.
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick, plus 2 tablespoons butter
1 cup buttermilk
parchment paper
Preheat oven to 475F.
Melt 1 stick of butter and let cool 5 minutes.
Whisk together the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter and the buttermilk, and stir until clumps form.
Stir the liquid into the dry ingredients until just incorporated and the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a 1/4 cup dry measure, scoop out and drop 12 balls of dough onto the baking sheet (this is easier if you spray the measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray).
Bake until the tops are golden brown, about 14 minutes.
Let cool on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and brush the tops of the biscuits with the butter before serving.
