Vegetables and Herbs
- ½ cup celery, chopped
- ½ cup onion, chopped
- ½ cup carrots, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (divided)
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups bread flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- ¾ teaspoon salt (divided)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Wet Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled (divided)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Prepare the vegetables: Add the celery, onion, carrots, thyme, sage, ¼ teaspoon salt, and black pepper to a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped.
- Sauté the vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetable mixture and cook for 10-12 minutes until softened and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for baking.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine bread flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt thoroughly.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and 4 tablespoons of the melted butter until smooth.
- Form the dough: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined into a dough. Fold in the cooled sautéed vegetables gently to distribute evenly.
- Portion the biscuits: Using a spoon, drop 12 heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto a baking stone or lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake initial phase: Place the biscuits in the preheated oven and bake for 12 minutes until they begin to rise and turn golden.
- Prepare topping butter: While baking, mix the remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter with the chopped fresh rosemary to create a flavorful brushing butter.
- Apply topping and continue baking: Remove biscuits from the oven after 12 minutes and generously brush them with the rosemary butter. Return the biscuits to the oven and bake for an additional 6-8 minutes until fully cooked and browned.
- Serve: Remove the biscuits from the oven and serve warm. They pair wonderfully with butter, cranberry sauce, gravy, or can be used as turkey sliders for a delicious meal option.
Notes
- Use bread flour for a chewier biscuit texture; all-purpose flour will yield a slightly softer biscuit.
- Ensure the vegetables cool completely before mixing with dough to avoid over-activating the baking soda and baking powder.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute buttermilk with a mix of plant-based milk and lemon juice, and use dairy-free butter alternatives.
- Baking stones help achieve a crisp biscuit bottom but can be substituted with a heavy baking sheet.
- These biscuits freeze well; cool completely then freeze in an airtight container. Reheat in the oven before serving.
