Butter Dip Biscuits Aka Butter Swim Biscuits Recipes

BUTTER SWIM BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place butter in an 8x8-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir butter and keep microwaving at 20-second intervals until butter is fully melted.
• Sift flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a bowl. Add buttermilk and stir until combined. Pour over melted butter and spread over the melted butter. Use a bench scraper to cut dough into 9 equal pieces.
• Bake in the preheated oven until biscuit tops start to brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

BUTTER DIP BISCUITS (A.K.A. BUTTER SWIM BISCUITS)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450F degrees. Spray a glass or ceramic 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (I like the kind with flour in it).
• In a microwave-safe bowl, melt stick of butter in the microwave. Pour melted butter into prepared baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Pour in the buttermilk. Stir until a sticky batter forms. If batter still seems too dry add a tad bit more buttermilk until the batter is thick and sticky.
• Pour biscuit dough into baking dish (right on top of the melted butter.) Some of the butter will run over the top of the dough. Tip: I will spray my hand with some nonstick spray to help spread the dough out evenly in the pan.
• Cut the dough into 9 squares (as best you can). This will help with cutting later when the biscuits are baked.
• Bake (on the middle oven rack) for about 25-30 minutes, rotating dish once during baking.
• Oven times DO VARY since different ovens have different hot spots, but basically biscuits should be golden brown on top and spring back to the touch. Insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean with no batter, they are done!
