Chive Buttermilk Biscuits
Ingredients
2 cups (500 mL) all-purpose flour
¼ tsp (1 mL) baking soda
1 tbsp (15 mL) baking powder
1 tsp (5 mL) salt
6 tbsp (90 mL) grated butter
1 cups (250 mL) buttermilk
1 tbsp (15 mL) fresh chives, diced
Directions
Preheat oven to 450F/230C.
Grate the butter and cut into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal. If using a food processor, pulse a few times until the consistency is achieved. Add the buttermilk and chives and mix just until combined. If it appears on the dry side, add a bit more buttermilk. It should be very wet.
Turn the dough out onto a floured board. Gently pat (do not roll with a rolling pin) the dough out to about half an inch thick. Use a cutter to cut into rounds. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
