Can we talk about biscuits for just a minute? Really delicious, creamy, tender, out of this world delicious biscuits? If you’ve visited with me for any time, you know how much I love to make biscuits for my family. They are one of my son’s most loved things that I make, work well with just about any meal you can imagine, and are like the little black dress for dinner parties.
I love to make and serve these easy bacon green onion biscuits along with a bowl of soup (love it with this tomato soup!)or a salad to round out the meal when company comes. The bacon and green onions just add a little extra something to the biscuits to take them over the top without being fussy or complicated. As with all of my biscuits, I start with White Lily® flour. It truly is my go-to flour to use when making tender, delicious biscuits. Since it is a lower protein flour, it allows the biscuits to rise higher and have a more tender, flakey crumb. It’s no wonder it is the flour that was always in my Grandmother Verdie’s and Mama’s kitchens! To make these biscuits, I toss together my green onions and bacon in the flour to coat them. Then, I gently stir in the cream just until all of the ingredients are combined. You’ll want to be sure you don’t overmix at this point or you’ll end up with a tough, dry biscuit. And nobody wants a tough biscuit! At least no one I know does! Once all of the ingredients are mixed together, I turn the dough onto a floured board and gently fold the dough over onto itself to form a rectangle. I then cut the biscuits with a biscuit cutter and place onto a prepared pan and bake until lightly golden brown. Finally, I brush them with a little bit of melted butter and return them to the oven for about a minute and then remove and serve.
Here’s my Bacon Green Onion Biscuits recipe. I think you’ll enjoy them as much as we do! Enjoy! Robyn xo
