Buttermilk Biscuits Three Ways
If you’ve spent any time in the US, you’ll know that biscuits are a way of life. Not to be confused with scones which are typically made with eggs, or biscuits in Great Britain which would be called a cookie in North America, the Buttermilk Biscuit is a quick bread that’s soft and fluffy or flaky. I’m a huge fan of any variation of a Buttermilk Biscuit served warm with butter so Buttermilk Biscuits Three Ways is three times as good.
