Ima’s Easy Buttermilk Biscuits
These are very good split, with some fresh, sugared blackberries and whipped cream.
Bake 400 degrees Bake 10 -12 minutes till tops brown (fork test inside to make sure they're totally baked)
In a bowl Mix the dry stuff: 2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda,1/8 cup sugar, some cinnamon (½ teaspoon?)
Make a little well in the dry stuff pour in ¼ cup corn oil and 1 cup buttermilk (if using regular milk*, use 1 tablespoon baking powder and no baking soda). Do not beat, just mix softly until combined.
Pam spray/oil muffin pan/ cookie sheet/pan
Additions: Raisins or a few blackberries or blueberries (mix these w/ dry stuff) or A spot of berry jam in the top of each muffin (jammy muffins). You need to bake them a little longer if you do this. Just watch 'em and fork test.
*or make buttermilk substitute: A tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice plus enough milk to make a cup, let stand 5 minutes
I created this collage using Photoshop CS4 and some more of my own blackberry photos I took in the park. I used a filters and the stamp tool generously. I extracted color from the photos for backgrounds and for tinting.
YUM, for your eyes, and for taste 2!!
