Self-Rising Flour Biscuits


I love weekend breakfast but sometimes I want delicious but quick.  So when I saw this self-rising flour biscuit recipe I knew I had to try it. The Greedies enjoyed them so they will for sure become a part of the breakfast/brunch rotation.


Self-Rising Flour Biscuits
What you need:

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cut into pats
  • 2/3 to 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • Enough butter to grease the baking pan

What to do:


  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees
  • Place the flour in a bowl. Work in the butter just until crumbs are the size of large peas
  • Add 2/3 cup of the buttermilk, and stir until the mixture holds together and leaves the sides of the bowl, adding more buttermilk if needed
  • Turn the dough onto a well-floured surface, and fold it over on itself several times, using more flour as needed to prevent sticking
  • Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1/2" to 3/4" thick.
  • Cut biscuits with a sharp, round 2" cutter, dipping the cutter into flour between cuts to reduce sticking. Pat the scraps together, and cut additional biscuits
  • Place the biscuits on a buttered round baking pan with the sides touching
  • Bake the biscuits for 10 to 14 minutes, or until they're a light golden brown
  • Remove them from the oven and serve hot.
