<\/a><\/center>I had a recent craving for buttermilk biscuits, but alas, I didn’t have any buttermilk, and I wasn’t willing to put that much effort into the venture. Lucky for me that I just happened to have a package of Bob’s Red Mill Buttermilk Biscuit Mix stashed away. And check it–it’s made with Stone Ground Whole Wheat Flour, so it’s practically good for you!\n
<\/a>All you need is this mix, some butter, a bit of water, and an egg. You can even use vegetable oil if you don’t even want to bother with the whole cutting in of the butter. I also have a couple of tricks I use:\n– use a wide, flat-bottomed bowl to mix the ingredients together and then just knead the dough directly in the bowl! Turning the dough out onto a lightly floured board is for the birds!
\n– I like to snap on disposable surgical gloves to mix and knead dough. I guess I am a little weird about sticky hands. Oh, and they are great for forming rice balls, too.
\n– If you don’t want to mess with the whole “roll out and cut with a biscuit cutter” business, just put the dough ball onto the baking sheet, pat it down with your surgical glove-protected hands, then cut the disk like a pizza. You can then separate the wedges for baking or just leave them touching.
\nSo these biscuits probably weren’t the best biscuits I have ever had, but they were pretty darn tasty, and they were quick and easy. That, my friends, is a winning combination in my book.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
