Cheese Bomb Biscuits

April 6, 2025 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I absolutely adore a good buttermilk biscuit. And I’ve gotten pretty good at making them. It may be the thing I am asked to cook for friends and family the most. I make them in bulk and keep them in the freezer. At a holiday brunch, I am famous for my biscuit bars – several types of biscuits, homemade jams, flavored butters and gravies in chafing dishes. I make biscuits … [Read more...] about Cheese Bomb Biscuits

But I say … [Read more...] about Old Fashioned Buttermilk Cake

Summer Squash and Gruyere Buttermilk Biscuits

August 13, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I’ve had a recipe marked for a while for a zucchini drop biscuit. It seemed like a good way to use up one last stray zucchini from the farmers market. It’s a pretty good recipe, nothing special. But it did lead me to the idea of a proper biscuit. I do love a biscuit, and think they are a real treat with special add-ins. I’ve made them with fresh … [Read more...] about Summer Squash and Gruyere Buttermilk Biscuits

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
