- Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk to combine. Add the butter, and, using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the milk, and stir until just combined.
- Spoon 10 mounds, about 1/2 cup each, onto a baking sheet 1 inch apart; bake until the biscuits start to brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven; cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
- Cut 6 ounces bacon into 1/2-inch pieces, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined bowl. Add 1 small onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice, to the hot fat in the skillet; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Add the bacon and onion to the butter and flour mixture after the butter has been cut in. Proceed with the recipe.
Tips:
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for the best results. A well-seasoned skillet will help to prevent the biscuits from sticking and will give them a crispy exterior.
- Make sure the buttermilk is at room temperature before using it. This will help to ensure that the biscuits are light and fluffy.
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
- Drop the biscuit dough into the hot skillet by rounded tablespoons. Do not flatten the biscuits.
- Cook the biscuits over medium heat until they are golden brown on the bottom and cooked through in the center. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
- Serve the biscuits hot with butter, honey, or your favorite jam.
Conclusion:
These cornmeal drop biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make addition to any meal. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Serve them with your favorite soup, stew, or chili. You can also enjoy them on their own with butter, honey, or jam. Cornmeal drop biscuits are a versatile and satisfying dish that everyone will love.
