Provided by Food Network

Time 45m

Yield 6 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup rye flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 1/4 cup for dusting
1 stick unsalted butter, very chilled and diced
1 cup buttermilk, chilled
Strawberry Jam, recipe follows
1 pound strawberries, hulled and roughly chopped
1 1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest plus juice of half a lemon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the rye flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 1 1/2 cups of the all-purpose flour in a large bowl. Cut in the butter with your hands until you have pea-size crumbs and the flour is coated with butter. Stir in the buttermilk.
  • Dust a work surface with the remaining 1/4 cup flour.
  • Pat the dough into a rectangle. Fold the dough over on itself a few times and pat out to a 1/2-inch thickness. Punch out 6 biscuits with a 2 3/4-inch ring mold or biscuit cutter and place in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Serve with Strawberry Jam.
  • Add the strawberries, sugar and lemon zest and juice to a medium skillet set over medium-high heat and stir until thickened and a jammy consistency, 9 to 10 minutes.

I experimented with different toppings for these biscuits. I tried a savory version with melted cheese and bacon, and a sweet version with cinnamon sugar. Both were amazing! I love that this recipe is so versatile.

I made these biscuits with whole wheat flour and honey instead of sugar. They were still delicious and had a nice nutty flavor. I'm glad I found a healthier way to enjoy my favorite comfort food.

I'm a purist when it comes to biscuits, and these definitely passed the test. They had the perfect balance of flakiness and tenderness, and the flavor was spot-on. I'll be making these for my family for years to come.

I added a teaspoon of caraway seeds to the dough for a little extra flavor. It gave the biscuits a nice savory touch that paired well with the sharp cheddar cheese I served them with.

These biscuits were super easy to make and they turned out great! I didn't have any buttermilk on hand, so I used regular milk with a tablespoon of vinegar, and they still came out fluffy and delicious. Definitely a keeper recipe.
