Recently I tried making Alton Brown’s recipe for Southern biscuits and so far it’s my favorite buttermilk biscuit recipe. The biscuits turn out tall and flaky, but crispy on the outside. Overall, the recipe is very easy to follow and the result is delicious!

In his recipe the chef suggests using a 2-inch cutter, which is great for serving the biscuits with jam, for example. But using a larger one will also give you the opportunity to make delicious breakfast sandwiches from these biscuits.

Steps

1
Done

In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Rub the butter and shortening into the flour mixture using your fingertips. Proceed until it looks like crumbs.
2
Done

Pour the buttermilk in the center. Mix, so everything comes together. You'll get a very sticky dough.
3
Done

Flour a countertop. Place the dough on it. Sprinkle with flour. Fold the dough over itself for about 5 times. Press so the layer is 1-inch thick. Using a 2-inch cutter cut out the biscuits. Then cut out the biscuits from the leftovers, but try to work the dough as little as possible. Otherwise, the biscuits won't be light.
4
Done

Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet and bake at 450 °F (230 °C) for 15–20 minutes. The biscuits should become tall and light golden on top.

Like many people nowadays, I love to explore new places. My favorite type is slow travelling, when you can really blend in with locals and learn about new cultures and languages. But I think there are also perfect times for enjoying freshly baked pastry, a cup of fragrant coffee, and a good movie in the comfort of your own home. I guess I'm kind of a cultural omnivore, and I watch different types of movies, but the ones about art and food inspire me the most!
