Serving Ingredients

Method

Biscuit Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Biscuit Dough

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  2. 2

    Incorporate the Butter

    Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Add Buttermilk

    Pour the buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. 4

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Bake the Biscuits

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

Whipped Butter Directions

  1. 6

    Prepare the Whipped Butter

    In a medium bowl, beat the unsalted butter until it is light and fluffy. Add honey and a pinch of sea salt, and continue to beat until well combined and creamy.

  2. 7

    Serve the Whipped Butter

    Transfer the whipped butter to a serving bowl and set aside.

Serving Directions

  1. 8

    Plate the Biscuits

    Place the warm biscuits on a serving platter.

  2. 9

    Add Toppings

    Drizzle dark cane syrup over the biscuits and finish with a sprinkle of smoked sea salt.

  3. 10

    Serve

    Serve the biscuits warm with the whipped butter on the side.
