Yield Makes about 2 dozen tea cakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the work surface
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg
1 stick (4 ounces) butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
¼ cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Demerara sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour,baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl again, then beat in the buttermilk and vanilla.
  • Gradually add the flour mixture, beating just until smooth and well blended. Divide the dough in half. Flatten each half into a disc. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until chilled and slightly stiff, at least 1 hour, but overnight ideally.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • On a lightly floured surface, working with one portion at a time, roll the dough to a ¼-inch thickness. Cut with a floured 1½-inch round biscuit cutter. Gather the scraps, reroll, and cut again. Sprinkle lightly with demerara sugar. Transfer the tea cakes to the baking sheets and space them about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake until the tea cakes are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the pan for 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. The tea cakes will keep for about 2 weeks in an airtight container.
