9.Serve warm and enjoy!
Treat your ingredients with care...
- Buttermilk — If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 3/4 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra kick of flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the biscuit dough.
- To make the biscuits even more tender, handle the dough as little as possible.
- If you prefer a sweeter version, brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle them with a touch of sugar before baking.
- Experiment with different types of ham, such as smoked or honey-glazed, to add variety to your biscuits.
- These biscuits can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
