I am a lover of quick breads . . . scones, tea loaves, baking powder biscuits, muffins, corn bread, etc. I just love them. One of the reasons I love them is because they are quick to put together and they freeze really well. If you are making a pot of soup, it really isn't much extra work to put together a savoury muffin or quick bread to go along with it, and they realy turn a simple meal into something very special.

I pinned this recipe for buttermilk biscuits on Pinterest a number of weeks back and I finally got around to baking them late last week. I was really pleased with the way they turned out . . . so much so that I have baked them twice since I baked them the first time. Everyone just loves them. I adapted them from a recipe I found on a blog called the Baker Upstairs and they are utterly gorgeous.

Even the day after . . . in fact two days later they are still quite moreish. We just can't get enough of them and they are so quick and easy to make.

They are light and fluffy and they really do raise quite high . . . not quite a mile high . . . but quite tall at any rate. They're so good on their own, split and spread with a bit of butter . . .

Or with a bit of honey or a bit of cheese . . . jam . . . peanut butter. Mmmm . . . mmmm . . . good. I dare say that buttermilk will be a staple in my refrigerator from now on! (Did you know you can buy it by the litre from Ocado? You can! I only just discovered that myself a few weeks back! It's great!)

DeleteDisappointed, not a biscuit recipe more a scone or cobbler
ReplyDeleteNot sure what you did wrong, but as you can see from my photos, mine are clearly biscuits and delicious ones at that!
