Country Biscuits image

The next time you bake biscuits, make them country-style and get a little rise from the yeast as well as the baking powder and baking soda. Serve Southern-style with cream gravy or with creamy butter and honey or jelly. From an old newspaper clipping.

I was looking for a biscuit recipe that was a little different from the usual. This recipe caught my eye because it uses buttermilk. The biscuits were delicious! They were light and fluffy, with a slightly tangy flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my biscuits didn't turn out right. They were too dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These biscuits were a little too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred them to be a little lighter and fluffier.
