    Recipe Introduction


    Copycat Charley's Crab Savory Herbed Biscuits

    These freeze well, tightly wrapped, for about 2 months.

    Makes 30 2-inch biscuits.

    List of Ingredients




    • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling out

    • 3/4 teaspoon salt

    • 1 teaspoon baking soda

    • 1 tablespoon baking powder

    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste

    • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) cold butter, cut into 8 pieces

    • 2 tablespoons minced parsley

    • 1 tablespoon minced thyme leaves

    • 1 tablespoon minced sage leaves

    • 1/2 teaspoon minced oregano leaves

    • 7 ounces buttermilk

    • Olive oil for brushing biscuits

    Recipe



    In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Stir in the black pepper. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles small peas. Add the herbs and toss the mixture with a fork to combine. Add the buttermilk, and stir with a fork until just combined. Scrape down the bowl, and continue stirring until the mixture holds together as a soft dough. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Use the back of a spoon dipped in flour to pat out the dough to a circle about 1/2-inch thick.

    Heat oven to 400 degrees. Use a biscuit cutter, small glass rim, or if small biscuits are desired, a 1 1/4-inch round cutter, dipped in flour, to cut out biscuits.

    Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet 2 inches apart. Brush tops of biscuits lightly with olive oil.

    Bake biscuits in hot oven until pale golden on top, 16 to 18 minutes.
