Farmhouse Biscuits from Susan Branch

Susan Branch is my all time favorite author. Whether she is sharing a great recipe or a cute craft, her whimsical style is such a pleasure to read. I have several of her books and I especially enjoy pouring over the Christmas books that I have, this time of year.

Back in October (I think it was) I was lucky enough to win a copy of her Autumn book from FishMama at Life As Mom.

While there are tons of recipes that I have marked to try, today I’d like to share with you the Farmhouse Biscuits that my youngest son, Casey and I made. These biscuits were a little bite of heaven.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 c. Flour
• 2 1/2 t. Baking Powder
• 1/2 t. Baking Soda
• 1/2 t. Salt
• 1 c. Sour Cream

Directions:

Preheat oven at 350 degrees. Grease (butter) a baking sheet and flour a work surface. Combine first 4 ingredients. Mix in the sour cream with your fingers just until blended. (this step was very messy, but well worth it)

Pat dough out to 1/2 inch thick and cut with a round cookie cutter.

Casey helped cut the biscuits out.

Bake for 10 – 12 minutes or until golden brown

In the book Susan suggests spreading her Bee Butter on the biscuits, or serving them as Turkey Sandwiches with gravy. I served mine with my Apple Butter. And here’s a little peak for you of her wonderful work.

Isn’t her work just great? I’m looking forward to sharing the Christmas books with you too.

Notes: Please excuse the differences in photos, the biscuits were made before I started using my new camera. Susan Branch did not pay me or provide me with any product to write this post.
