Once of the things southern folks love most is their buttermilk biscuits.ย  Being a northern girl by birth, I didn’t grow up on homemade biscuits.ย  Nope, we were more of a roll sort of family.ย  However, the problem with yeast rolls is that they are a heck of a lot of work.ย  Mix dough, wait a while.ย  Punch down dough and make roll shapes.ย  Then wait some more.ย  Who the heck has that kind of time?ย  This homemade buttermilk biscuit recipe took me 10 minutes to mix and another 15 minutes to bake.ย  Seriously…this is the easiest buttermilk biscuit recipe you will ever make!

Buttermilk isn’t something I use a lot of but when I buy it, I tend to make lots of biscuits, pancakes, and other bread type products because I honestly don’t know what else one does with buttermilk!ย  I made a homemade lemon cake last week and I still have a ton of buttermilk left over.ย  If you have any buttermilk recipes that you enjoy, please let me know! Anyhow, this homemade buttermilk biscuit recipe is to die for and I am going to have some happy people at my dinner table tonight!
