Bite-size Buttermilk Biscuits
Biscuits are a more traditional Southern food and are often served with gravy.
Being drier in texture than regular dinner rolls, they absorb sauces and gravy well.
These goat cheese dill mini biscuits have a wonderful balance between moist interior and the flaky exterior people love about a good biscuit!
The tangy flavors of the goat cheese dill mini biscuits taste like spring. A spring meal should be light and flavor-packed as we exit the comfort food season.
Instead of making full size biscuits the dainty square biscuits a mere 1 inch by 1 inch in size.
A bit more than a bite, large enough to convey the tang of the goat cheese and signature dill but not enough to occupy too much room in one’s stomach!
Of course seconds and thirds are certainly allowed and encouraged!
Recipe Ingredients Notes
All Purpose Flour. Regular or gluten-free measure for measure flour blend can be used.
The gluten-free version of all our recipes are tested with Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free 1-to-1 Baking Flour.
Baking Powder and Baking Soda. This dynamic duo help with rising and the perfect biscuit texture.
Granulated Sugar. Just a pinch creates a flavor contrast without making the biscuits taste truly sweet.
Kosher salt. Any salt will work but kosher salt is our favorite. It tastes less salty than iodized salt and mixes will due to the flake size.
Black pepper. Use freshly ground if possible.
Unsalted Butter. This gives the buttermilk biscuits a wonderful buttery flavor and flakey texture.
Goat cheese. You’ll use crumbled goat cheese. You can hand crumble a log of goat cheese or buy crumbles to save some time.
Fresh dill. Available in the produce section of the grocery store. Fresh dill adds a springy flavor.
