Hallelujah Biscuit

Hallelujah Biscuit

2 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/3 cup cold butter, diced in smallish pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk (or regular milk, possibly rice milk is ok) a little more if its too dry.

I mixed all but the buttermilk first, then added buttermilk and stirred.  I actually kneaded it a little to make sure everything was incorporated into the dough (no dry floury spots).  form into one large biscuit.

Heat the oven to 450 while you're mixing up the biscuit.

Melt a couple of T's of butter in cast iron skillet, then put in your biscuit dough.  Flatten it a little so it cooks evenly. (my first try was doughy in the center).  Bake 12 minutes, check it for doneness.

+ eat like a big scone with butter and jam; or
serve with chili or spaghetti or vegetable soup.

*you could also make it into four smaller biscuits and cook a little less time. A little less impressive maybe but could be a  little more convenient?
