Trisha Yearwoods Angel Biscuits


I watch Trisha Yearwood show the other day on the Cooking Channel. These biscuits looked so good that even my hubby said you gotta make these!! Today was a snowday and I thought it was a good day to make biscuits! They turned out so good and so flakey! Also make them in a cast iron pan. They cook much better. 





You will need:
5 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
5 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup warm water
3 tbsp active dry yeast
1 cup butter melted
2 cups buttermilk 

Directions:

Preheat oven at 425 Degrees
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 3 tablespoons of the sugar.
In a small bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbles appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
 Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk and the yeast mixture. Then add melted butter. Gently fold the flour into the wet ingredients. Keep mixing until a ball starts to form, then gently knead, 12 to 15 times, to create a smooth dough. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and press out to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick. Fold the dough in half, press again to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick, and then fold again. Cut the dough using a 2- to 3-inch round biscuit cutter, depending personal preference. Brush the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with some of the melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet; brush the tops with melted butter.
Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes, depending on size. Brush again with melted butter and serve immediately.
