Bonnies Breakfast Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Before you begin, make sure all ingredients are ice cold, and make the biscuits quickly and get them into the oven before they heat up. That is the secret of a tall and flaky biscuit. Of course, not handling them too much and the addition of cream of tartar is important, too. I use a parchment lined 9X13 metal baking pan for my biscuits. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Bake about 15 minutes until golden brown or a little darker, like mine. This recipe makes 6 large biscuits.
• # Flour a cutting board. # Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. # Mix the egg with the buttermilk in a small bowl, and keep it in the fridge. # Use a pastry cutter to cut the ice cold grated butter into the dry ingredients until it is the size of a pea. You will see little "peas" of butter in the flour. (just like you do when making pie crusts) # Now add the cold milk and egg mixture to the flour and butter. # Gently mix it quickly with a wooden spoon, (over handling makes biscuits tough.) # Turn out on the floured cutting board, and flour your hands. # Knead lightly, and pat the dough with your hands to a thickness of one inch. # Cut with a large biscuit cutter. # Place biscuits in the parchment lined pan. Bake about 15 minutes in the hot oven, and brush tops with butter before serving. Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, powdered milk, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, salt and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter bits and shortening into the dry mixture until blended thoroughly. Mix in the cheese, then fold in the buttermilk until the dough comes together.
• On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and press into a circle 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick. Cut out circles with a biscuit cutter or a glass. Place the biscuits in cast-iron skillets, then brush the tops with the melted butter. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes, then set aside to cool a little.
• For the sandwiches: Next, add the sausage patties to a skillet over medium heat and fry until cooked through. Set aside and keep warm. In the same skillet, fry the eggs, turning them over to cook the yolks through.
• Now make a sandwich by cutting a biscuit in half. Put a sausage patty on the bottom half. Top with an egg, some hot sauce and a slice of cheese. Cover with the top and eat, or wrap in foil to keep warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened., Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter., Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Serve warm.
