Herb Buttermilk Biscuits
- 1 (1/4-oz.) package active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water (100u0b0 to 110u0b0)
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 9 tablespoons butter, divided
- 2 cups low-fat buttermilk
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh poultry herbs
- Butter-flavored cooking spray
- Combine yeast and warm water (100u0b0 to 110u0b0) in a 1-cup glass measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes.
- Whisk together flour and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Cut 1 stick of butter into small pieces. Cut into flour mixture with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add yeast mixture, buttermilk, and herbs; stir with a fork just until dry ingredients are moistened. Cover and chill dough for 1 hour.
- Turn out dough onto a floured surface; knead lightly 5 times. Roll dough to 1/2" thickness; cut with a 2 1/2" round biscuit cutter. Place biscuits on 2 large baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Melt remaining 1 Tbsp. butter; brush lightly over biscuits.
