Sage Biscuits image

These light and flaky biscuits have just a hint of sage flavor (which can be overpowering if over-used) but none of the baking powder taste that you sometimes get with biscuits. I find they go especially nicely with roasted meats.

Time 22m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup cold milk
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
3/4 cup chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 425°F.
  • Whisk together milk and egg until blended in a small bowl; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, blend together flour, baking powder, salt, sage, and the two peppers with a fork.
  • Add butter pieces and massage into the flour with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
  • Add the milk mixture and blend in (with hands) until you can gather the whole into a ball, but don't overmix.
  • Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead just until it holds together, about 6 turns.
  • Roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.
  • Using a floured 2 inch biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits; re-roll out scraps and cut out remaining biscuits.
  • Transfer biscuits to a large non-stick baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes.

These biscuits are a great way to use up leftover buttermilk. I always have buttermilk on hand, so I'm always looking for new recipes to use it in.

I've also experimented with adding different ingredients to these biscuits, such as cheese, bacon, and jalapeños. They're all delicious variations.

I've made these biscuits with both fresh and dried sage. They're both delicious, but I prefer the flavor of fresh sage.

I love that these biscuits can be made ahead of time. I usually make a batch on the weekend and then freeze them. Then I can just pop them in the oven when I need them.

These biscuits are the perfect addition to any brunch or dinner. They're light and fluffy, with a crispy outer crust. I especially love them with a slather of butter and honey.

I was a little hesitant to try these biscuits because I'm not a big fan of sage, but I'm so glad I did! The sage flavor was subtle and really complemented the other flavors in the biscuit.

These biscuits were a hit with my family! They had a perfect balance of savory and sweet, and the sage added a nice touch of herb flavor. I'll definitely be making these again.
