Ingredients

Scale

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

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

Instructions

  1. Chop Vegetables: Place the celery, onion, carrots, thyme, sage, ¼ teaspoon salt, and black pepper into a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped but not pureed, ensuring even cooking and flavor distribution.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and sauté for 10-12 minutes until softened and fragrant. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
  3. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking stone or baking sheet for the biscuits.
  4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt. Whisk to evenly distribute the leavening agents and seasonings.
  5. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a smaller bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and 4 tablespoons of the melted, cooled butter until combined.
  6. Form the Dough: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined into a dough. Then fold in the cooled sautéed vegetables, mixing evenly without overworking the dough.
  7. Shape Biscuits: Using a spoon, place 12 heaping spoonfuls of dough evenly spaced on the baking stone or sheet. The biscuits do not need to be perfectly shaped as they will bake into rustic rounds.
  8. Bake Initial: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12 minutes until they are starting to turn golden on top.
  9. Prepare Herb Butter: While baking, mix the remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter with the chopped fresh rosemary to create a flavorful topping.
  10. Brush Biscuits: Remove the biscuits from the oven and brush the tops generously with the rosemary butter mixture for added flavor and shine.
  11. Final Bake: Return the biscuits to the oven and bake for an additional 6-8 minutes until fully cooked through and golden brown.
  12. Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm. These biscuits pair beautifully with butter, cranberry sauce, gravy, or can be used to make delicious turkey sliders.

Notes

  • Make sure the sautéed vegetables are fully cooled before mixing into the dough to avoid activating the baking soda prematurely.
  • Use bread flour for a chewier, more structured biscuit; all-purpose flour may result in a softer texture.
  • Buttermilk can be substituted with regular milk plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar if unavailable.
  • For extra crispiness, bake biscuits on a preheated baking stone or heavy baking sheet.
  • Leftover biscuits can be reheated in the oven or toaster oven to regain crispness.
