List of Ingredients




• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 3/4 cup buttermilk
• 2 1/4 cups flour, plus additional for work surface
• 1/3 cup + 2 Tablespoons honey
• 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons rolled oats (not quick-cooking), divided
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2/3 cup solid vegetable shortening


Recipe



Preheat oven to 400°F. Position rack in center of oven. Grease and flour a large baking sheet or line it with baking parchment; set aside. Combine flour, 1/2 cup oats, baking soda, and salt in large bowl. Stir until well combined. Add the shortening to flour mixture and cut in with a pastry cutter or two forks, until the mixture is crumbly. Add buttermilk and 1/3 cup honey to the flour mixture; stir with a fork just until the liquids are absorbed and a soft dough forms.

Transfer dough to a well-floured work surface and using well-floured hands, pat into a 1/3-inch thick circle. Dust the top of the dough with flour. Use a 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter or drinking glass to cut out the biscuits. Place 2-inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Recombine dough trimmings and reflour work surface. Pat out trimmings to 1/3-inch thickness and repeat entire process to make as many additional biscuits as possible.

Place remaining 2 Tablespoons honey in a small bowl with melted butter. Stir until well mixed. Brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with the honey-butter mixture and sprinkle them with remaining 2 Tablespoons oats.

Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to wire rack to cool 10 minutes.
