-
This recipe makes about 6 large biscuits.
-
I start these in my food processor because it is so fast but they can be made just as easily in a large bowl by cutting the butter in with a pastry blender or even 2 knifes held between the fingers.
-
In a food processor, combine the flour sugar, baking powder and salt, then add the cold butter.
-
Pulse process until this mixture resembles a coarse meal.
-
Mix together the vanilla extract and buttermilk.
-
Pour this over the surface of the dry mixture. Toss all together gently with a rubber spatula, only enough to form a dough ball.
-
Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a parchment lined baking pan.
-
Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 - 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Baking time will vary depending on the size of your biscuits.
