  • Total Time: 0 hours
  • Yield: 8 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz frozen butter grated
  • 1 & 3/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup fine yellow cornmeal
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp melted butter for brushing tops after baking

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If the butter isn’t frozen, place it in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. Grate the frozen butter into the flour mixture using a box grater, and toss to coat the butter shreds evenly.
  4. Pour in the cold buttermilk and stir with a fork until the dough just comes together; there should still be some shaggy bits.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds, rotate it 90 degrees, and pat it back out to 1 inch thick. Repeat this folding process three times.
  6. Pat the dough to a 1-inch thickness and cut it into 3-inch rounds using a biscuit cutter, pressing straight down. Gather scraps, re-press and cut remaining biscuits, yielding a total of 8 biscuits.
  7. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet so that their sides touch. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to ensure flakiness.
  8. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  9. Brush the warm biscuits with melted butter before serving.

Notes

Make sure the butter is well frozen before grating for the best texture in the biscuits.
Chill the biscuits before baking to help them rise and create a flaky texture.
These biscuits can be served with honey or your favorite jam.
