These biscuits are wonderfully full of flavor and textures - tender, flaky with the pleasant presence of cornmeal and the crunchy bite of the pepper and sea salted biscuit tops. I've made them several times now and they never fail to please. They'r... More

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup chilled buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions ( sometimes use a bit more)
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 3 tablespoons sugar (I like to use two tablespoons of sugar. In my opinion gives them the perfect background sweetness.)
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper plus additional for sprinkling
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • Coarse sea salt

Directions
  1. Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 425°F.
  2. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Combine buttermilk and green onions in medium bowl. (Note: If you really want to infuse the buttermilk with green onion flavor, cover and let sit in the fridge for an hour or two before proceeding.)
  4. Whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper in large bowl to blend. Add 1/2 cup chilled butter and rub in with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk mixture and stir until moist clumps form.
  5. Gather dough together. Turn dough out onto floured surface and knead gently just to combine, about 3 to 4 turns.
  6. Roll out to 3/4-inch thickness. Using floured 2-inch cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out rounds. Reroll scraps and cut out additional rounds.
  7. Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops of biscuits with melted butter. Sprinkle each lightly with coarse sea salt and ground black pepper.
  8. Bake biscuits until golden and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Thank you for the advance on this recipe I got to make these Sunday and we had them this morning and tonight as well. All I have to say is you are the Mayor of these Buttermilk Biscuits With Green Onions Black Pepper And Sea Salt.
Five forks and a smile and flag as beautiful and unique.

Wow Vikie!! I love savory biscuits. I can think of so many possibilities for these. First and foremost is slathered with butter and downed by the dozen...;-) I can't think of a flavor combo I would rather have in a biscuit... Thanks for sharing this recipe... Jim

I think these would be great with chili or some hot dish like it! Thanks for sharing.


Hey Vickie, This sounds perfect! Made Ina Gartens cheddar biscuits and they were more like crackers! Think the self rising flour is the answer. TQ, Mare
