These biscuits are super buttery and flaky. They have a crispy crust and a soft inside. I love these. Serve them at breakfast or brunch, everyone will enjoy them.
How to make Butter Swim Biscuits:
These biscuits are simple to make. Make a typical buttermilk biscuit mix. Then you cover the batter in melted butter and bake to golden perfection.
Ingredients:
- All-Purpose Flour
- Baking Powder
- Sugar
- Salt
- Buttermilk
- Butter - melted
Directions:
Step Four continued - Spoon in dough and spread our evenly. Before baking use a butter knife to cut into 3 rows of squares.
Step Five - Bake for 25-27 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to rest 5-10 minutes before serving.
Tips for making these biscuits:
- Watch your butter! Make sure when melting the butter, you watch to not burn it. The key to this recipe is having rich golden melted butter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will result in a lot of air getting into the dough. This will cause the biscuit to not be as light and fluffy on the inside.
- Do not over bake. With the butter in the pan, over-baking could result in burning the biscuits as well. You want that golden brown color, and if you pull them out of the over a tad early they will still bake in the pan.
How to store the biscuits:
Once the biscuits are cooled you can store them in a Ziplock baggie or an air-tight container. These biscuits will last about 5-7 days after baking. Warm them up in the microwave for about 30 seconds before serving again.
