Feta And Dill Drop Biscuits Recipes

FETA DILL BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. In a large bowl, combine flour, feta, parsley, dill, basil, green onions, lemon zest, baking powder, salt, baking soda and pepper. Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture. Add buttermilk and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 10-12 rounds using a 2 1/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet; place in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove biscuits from freezer. Place into oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm.

FETA-AND-DILL DROP BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces remaining. Stir in cheese and dill.
• Add buttermilk and stir to create a thick, sticky batter (do not overmix). Using two spoons, scoop and drop 8 (approximately 1/2-cup) biscuits onto prepared sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Brush tops with buttermilk and sprinkle with dill sprigs.
• Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving. Biscuits are best eaten still warm from the oven, but can be stored at room temperature, lightly covered, up to 1 day, or frozen up to 1 month. Reheat (after defrosting if frozen) in a 350° oven to refresh, about 10 minutes.

BREAKFAST-SAUSAGE-AND-GRUYERE DROP BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment, then crumble sausage onto it. Roast until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then remove sausage from pan and break into small pieces (you should have 3/4 cup).
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, thyme, and red-pepper flakes. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces remaining. Stir in cooked sausage and cheese.
• Add buttermilk and stir to create a thick, sticky batter (do not overmix). Using two spoons, scoop and drop 8 (approximately 1/2-cup) biscuits onto same baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between them.
• Brush tops with buttermilk and sprinkle with thyme sprigs. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving. Biscuits are best eaten still warm from the oven, but can be stored at room temperature, lightly covered, up to 1 day, or frozen up to 1 month. Reheat (after defrosting if frozen) in a 350° oven to refresh, about 10 minutes.

FETA-AND-DILL-STUFFED ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove crust from bread and tear into 1/2-inch pieces (you should have 4 cups). Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; dry in oven, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Stand artichokes in a saucepan just large enough to hold them. Add water until 3/4 inch up sides of pan; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and steam until artichokes are tender, 30 to 35 minutes. (Add more water as needed.) Transfer to a plate; let cool, then slice in half lengthwise. Scoop out fuzzy chokes with a spoon; discard.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine bread, oil, cheese, dill, and broth. Season mixture and insides of artichokes with salt and pepper. Divide stuffing among artichokes, mounding tops; drizzle with oil. Place in an oiled baking dish; bake until heated through and tops are golden brown, about 25 minutes. Drizzle with more oil, top with dill sprigs, and serve.
