How to Make Southern Biscuits - Two Different Ways | Freezing Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits
In this video I show you how to make fluffy, golden Southern Buttermilk Biscuits using measurements and two different methods. For the first method, I use a food processor and for the second method, a pastry cutter. Each recipe and method produces a soft, layered biscuit just like our Southern grandmother’s make them. Biscuits are the ultimate comfort food and staple in almost every true, Southern home. Making them is easy! Give these recipes a try and let me know what you think. I would love to hear from you! Recipe below.
BLOG WITH PRINTABLE RECIPES COMING SOON!!!
Southern Biscuit Recipe:
Ingredients:
2 cups Self Rising Flour (300 grams) plus more for flouring your surface
6 TBS Butter (90 grams)
2 TBS Butter melted (23 grams)
1 cup Buttermilk (238 grams)
Instructions:
* Preheat oven to 450 (you may be able to cook at 500 depending on your oven).
* Grease a flat, cast iron skillet (or an 8x8 pan works too).
* Cut the butter into cubes and place in the refrigerator until you are ready to use.
* Measure out 1 cup of buttermilk and put that in the fridge until you are ready to use it.
For the Food Processor method:
* Place flour and butter in the food processor and pulse about 3 times (or 3 seconds) or until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Do not over pulse.
* Next, slowly add the buttermilk to the food processor.
* Pulse 4-5 times (or about 4 seconds) until the dough comes together. It will be sticky!
* Flour your surface and biscuit cutter and rolling pin if using.
* Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, scrape out the excess from the food processor and gently scrape off the blade.
For the Pastry Cutter method:
* Place flour and butter in a bowl.
* Use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour (press and rock the cutter back and forth) until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs (pea size butter is good).
* Make a hole in the center of the mixture and slowly add your buttermilk. Being and patient and slow while adding buttermilk to flour gives it time to absorb.
* Gently fold the flour into the buttermilk until the mixture comes together. Be sure not to over mix.
* Turn the dough out onto a floured surface.
* Flour your hands and sprinkle a generous amount of flour on top of the dough.
* Use your hands or a floured rolling pin to gently roll the dough. If the dough is sticking to your hands or to the surface, add more flour.
* Fold the dough into itself; fold the bottom side of the dough into the middle then fold the top side of the dough into that. Fold side to side. If the dough feels sticky, sprinkle a little more flour over the dough.
* For more layers, repeat this process but be careful not to overwork the dough. You can always go ahead and cut the biscuits at this point instead of doing the second set of folds.
* Place biscuits onto a greased cast iron and bake for 10-14 minutes or until golden brown. For my oven, it’s about 10 minutes.
* While the biscuits are cooking, melt 2 TBS of butter. Once you remove the biscuits from the oven, brush the butter over the top.
* To freeze biscuits, place biscuits in the oven for about 7-9 minutes or until they have risen but are not yet browned. At this point, remove them from the oven and let cool. Once cool, place on a parchment lined sheet pan and set in the freezer for 1 hour. Flash freezing for 1 hours prevents the biscuits from sticking together when added to the freezer bag. After 1 hour, remove from the freezer and add to a freezer bag. When ready to cook, remove from the freezer, placed on a greased pan, and cook until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
Note: If you do not have access to self-rising flour, you can use all purpose flour plus 1 TBS of baking powder.

If you try to double it, I would put a spoon in the freezer and test the jam on the back of a cold spoon. If it doesn’t separate when you run your finger down the back of the spoon, cook it a tiny bit longer. I would definitely try a single recipe your first time around.

      @@countrygalinthecity I don’t know that pint jars would work very well with whole cranberries. You could certainly try it! I would half the amount of cranberries and sugar in the recipe and still process for 10 minutes. Honestly, for pint jars, I would recommend canning just the juice after you made it in a large pot. You can find a good method for how to do this at practicalselfreliance.com. Ashley has a trusted method for this.

    Can I leave out the sugar ?

    • @lifeonthehill316
      @lifeonthehill316 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@CatherineSummerfield I have seen people can beets without sugar, but the slight sweetness is what really brings out the flavor in this recipe. If it’s refined sugar specifically that you don’t want to use, you could always try it with equal parts honey. Either way, you may want to try doing a quick refrigerator pickle that doesn’t have to be canned just to make sure you’re going to like the flavor before you go through the canning process. To do that, I would cook and peel a handful of beets just like I did in the video. However, because you wouldn’t be canning the quick pickle, cook the beets a little bit longer, so they’ll be more tender. Cut them and then cover them with brine (maybe 1/4 of the recipe). Let them sit in the fridge for a few days and then give them a taste to see if you like the flavor. If you try it, let me know! I hope it turns out well for you no matter what you decide.

    • @lifeonthehill316
      @lifeonthehill316 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your feedback! Making biscuits is an art and does get a little messy! Honestly, when I make biscuits off camera, it’s a lot quicker and a little less messy because I’m used to doing it often, but when trying to thoughtfully capture the details that show someone else how to do it, you have to get in close and get a little messy. Once you get the hang of it, you really can make them pretty quickly. I certainly understand how convenient it is to grab them from the store, but in our home, we are focused on being producers instead of consumers that rely on someone else to do it for us. We don’t yet have the cow to make the butter or the buttermilk, but we hope to one day 😂. If there’s anything you take away from my channel, I hope that it’s to be a good steward the things that you have been blessed with in your own life. Even though you may not make biscuits, I certainly appreciate you taking time to watch the video! ❤️
