Karen's Best Buttermilk Biscuit image

A moist tender bisciut inside, with a golden buttery crunch outside. After much searching for the holy grail of southern cooking, (a great buttermilk biscuit) I developed this recipe that I am very proud of. It is blending of the qualities I wanted in a bisuit. Cruchy, tender, buttermik tang, and hearty enough to stand up to breakfast gravy and moist enough to serve with chicken and dumplings. Enjoy!

Time 39m

Yield 7 Biscuits, 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold butter
1/4 cup shortening
1 1/3 cups buttermilk
1/3 cup plain yogurt
1 egg
2 tablespoons melted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 390 degrees.
  • In large bowl wisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In medium bowl wisk buttermilk, yogurt and egg.
  • On a chilled cutting board, cut 1 stick of butter into 1/4 inch pieces using knife blade only to move pieces around while cutting.
  • Add to flour mixture, toss lightly with finger tips.
  • Add shortening to flour mixture, dropping a 1/2 teaspoon at a time.
  • Rub butter and shortening into flour mixture, using fingertips only-so heat from hands does not melt the butter. Mix until it resembles course crumbs.
  • Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture. Stir just until evenly moistened.
  • Turn out on floured board. Sprinkle a little flour on top.
  • Fold dough in half- 5 times, shaping dough into a rectangle as you fold.
  • Pat out till 1 3/4 inches thick.
  • Cut 6 biscuits into 2 inch rounds.
  • Gather left over pieces of dough and shape into same size biscuit.
  • Place biscuits on large ungreased baking sheet. Space 2 inches apart.
  • Bake 17-18 minutes, brushing with melted butter the last 2 minutes.
  • Place baked biscuits under broiler 1 minute.
  • Serve warm.
