Julia Child’s Herb Biscuits are fantastic biscuits!!!!! I love this recipe because it includes eggs, which I have never had in a biscuit.

The recipe also includes herbs which really enhance the flavor.

Delicious biscuits! Tender and moist with a beautiful texture and unbelievable taste!

I like using these for a brunch or stuffed with ham & cheese for breakfast on the go.

These Southern Buttermilk Biscuits are authentic. This recipe came from my great-great-grandmother and handed down to all in my family.

I would put these biscuits up against anyones. They are great with sawmill gravy and Paula Deen’s alrighty then scrambled eggs.

Links for the gravy and eggs recipes are below.

The worlds best biscuits recipe handed down for generations.

Course: Bread

Cuisine: American

Keyword: Southern Buttermilk Biscuits

Servings: 6

Calories: 365 kcal

Ingredients

• 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus more for dusting the board
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt or 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter very cold
• 1 cup buttermilk approx

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F.

2. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, or in the bowl of a food processor. Cut the butter into chunks and cut into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal. If using a food processor, just pulse a few times until this consistency is achieved.

3. Add the buttermilk and mix JUST until combined.

4. If it appears on the dry side, add a bit more buttermilk. It should be very wet. Turn the dough out onto a floured board.

5. Gently, gently PAT (do NOT roll with a rolling pin) the dough out until it's about 1/2" thick. Fold the dough about 5 times, gently press the dough down to a 1 inch thick.

6. Use a round cutter to cut into rounds.

7. You can gently knead the scraps together and make a few more, but they will not be anywhere near as good as the first ones.

8. Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet- if you like soft sides, put them touching each other. If you like"crusty" sides, put them about 1 inch apart- these will not rise as high as the biscuits put close together.

9. Bake for about 10-12 minutes- the biscuits will be a beautiful light golden brown on top and bottom.

Recipe Notes

Do not over bake.

You’re gonna’ love Lazy Irish Beer Bread. Great bread for St. Patricks day. It’s light and fluffy and closer to a yeast bread than a quick bread.

With just 3 ingredients it doesn’t get any easier!

It smells and tastes slightly of beer but so slightly that no one will know there is beer in it unless you tell them.

It’s light-textured inside, slightly crusty outside and about the same sweetness as any white yeast bread. And when it’s baking… Oh, the smell!!!

It also has some versatility to it. Try adding herbs like thyme or a pinch of rosemary. Seeds like celery seeds or caraway are great, too!

I love potato rolls! Up until I found this recipe I bought them from a bakery. But now I make my own that are, if anything, better than the bakeries. They’re crusty on the outside and light as a feather on the inside.

They are also very easy to make because the dough requires no hand kneading. Not only are they easy to make you can make them up in advance. Baking them right before you need them. Perfect for dinner parties.

I’ll buy potato rolls no more!!!

Potato Rolls

Ingredients

• 5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/4 ounce package active dry yeast
• 1 1/2 cups water 105 to 115 F
• 1/2 cup mashed potatoes
• 1/2 cup butter melted
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. In large bowl combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast.
2. In small mixing bowl combine the warm water, potatoes, butter, sugar and salt.
3. Add to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Beat with electric mixer for 30 seconds on low, scraping side of bowl. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
4. Stir in the remaining flour with a dough hook (or knead by hand), as needed (with most bread recipes the actual amount of flour required depends on humidity, etc. so add slowly until dough pulls away from sides of pan and forms a ball).
5. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours.
6. Punch the dough down. Turn out on lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
7. Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan. Shape the dough into 24 rolls. I divide by cutting dough piece in half and then each of those pieces in half--continuing until I have 24 pieces. That helps to get a more uniform size.
8. Make balls by holding the dough in both hands and gently smoothing by pushing the edges towards the back. Place the rolls in prepared pan.
9. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled in size (about 40 minutes).
10. Bake at 400°F for 16 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
