I’ve been focusing this month on simple comfort foods; food to share with family and friends that are simple and delicious. And nothing is more comforting to me than a homemade biscuit. So in the fall, I like to pair up the best of the season’s apples with a little sweet maple syrup to make a perfectly appropriate treat for breakfast, brunch or a snack.
These biscuits have just a hint of sweetness, so they pair well with the sweet maple butter. Any sweet spread would be lovely from homemade apple butter to a drizzle of honey. Take them more to the savory side with plain butter, or use them for ham biscuits with a little swipe of mustard.

Hi, I was hoping to get clarification in your instructions… The ingredient list says the butter is divided, but then the instructions don’t call out separate amounts, at least not in the first addition. It just says to cut up the butter and add it, presumably the whole 1/2 cup. Then later you refer to “the remaining 2 tablespoons butter”.
Sorry for the confusion – corrected now. Run 6 Tablespoons of the butter into the flour mixture, then melt the 2 remaining Tablespoons to brush the tops.
That’s what I figured. Thanks!
