Buttermilk Pancakes

Quick Cinnamon Rolls

Very good cinnamon rolls can be made for breakfast in about 40 minutes if they are based on biscuit dough rather than yeast dough.  Here is how I made them this morning for two people, combining Buttermilk Biscuits for Two with some ideas in Cooks Illustrated’s The Quick Recipe.  These could easily be scaled up Read More …

Southern Sausage Roll

This is half a batch of buttermilk biscuits encasing a browned and split 4 oz. smoked sausage, some grated cheddar, and pickled jalapenos. It was a fairly quick and tasty breakfast

Buttermilk Biscuits with Mix-ins

I have been thinking about making savory biscuits by mixing meat, cheese, onions, etc. into the biscuit dough.  I have noticed that it is much easier to incorporate such ingredients in low gluten biscuit dough than in high gluten bread dough.  This version is  Buttermilk Biscuits for Two plus 5 oz. of Taylor pork roll, Read More …

Biscuit Bombs with Potato and Cheese Filling

This is a vegetarian version of biscuit bombs, combining Buttermilk Biscuits and Potato and Cheese Filling.  ¼ cup of filling per Biscuit Bomb.  A full batch of the filling will fill 16 biscuits. I like to add a little SriRacha or other hot sauce to the biscuit bombs.

Peach-Bourbon Jam

We recently bought a large quantity of peaches at a roadside stand in eastern North Carolina, and decided to turn many of them into jam.  This version is an adaptation of a recipe in Southern Living’s Little Jars, Big Flavors, and it turned out very well.  It made a little more than 9 half-pint jars.

Biscuit Bombs with Store-bought biscuit dough

Biscuit bombs with home-made buttermilk biscuits are quite easy to make as explained in my posting on Biscuit Bombs. They can be made even more easily with large store-bought biscuit dough.  Each of the doughs should be flattened out to about a 6 inch circle and then a covered by a layer of shredded cheddar Read More …

Pain au Chocolat

Instructions to follow Pain au Chocolat is another way to use the dough for Croissants, and I used half of the dough for this purpose.  All that is needed is the dough, some chocolate chips, and a beaten egg for an egg wash. Roll out the croissant dough until a single recipe is a 17 Read More …

Baked Coffee Cake Donuts

Carol recently bought a pan for baking 6 donuts, so I kept my eyes open for baked donut recipes.  I spotted the Easy Baked Donut Cookbook on line at a good price, bought it, and made its coffee cake donuts.  I don’t think they looked very donut-like, but they were tasty and cooked quickly.  I Read More …
