Butter Swim Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

• For the Biscuits:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup plain yogurt or sour cream
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• For the Butter Swim:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (like thyme or parsley) (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
2. Make the Biscuit Dough:
   • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
   • In another bowl, mix the milk, yogurt, and ½ cup melted butter until well combined.
   • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough will be sticky.
3. Prepare the Baking Dish:
   • In a 9×13-inch baking dish, pour the remaining ½ cup of melted butter. If using, mix in garlic powder and dried herbs.
4. Transfer the Dough:
   • Spoon the biscuit dough directly into the baking dish over the melted butter. Spread it out evenly but don’t worry about making it perfect.
5. Bake:
   • Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.
6. Serve:
   • Let them cool for a few minutes before serving. You can drizzle with extra melted butter or serve with honey or jam if desired.

Enjoy!

These biscuits are perfect as a side dish for dinner, breakfast, or even as a snack. Enjoy your buttery goodness!
