This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at LSU chapter.

This one recipe will be all you need this summer to shock relatives and say goodbye to store bought biscuits (sorry not sorry @pillsburydoughboy). In 7 easy steps, you’ll be able to create biscuits in a muffin tin fit for any meal of the day.

Don’t believe me? Slather these biscuits with jam for breakfast, pair them with a chicken dish for lunch, or have a basket ready at any family barbecue or social outing. One recipe, endless possibilities.

These Alabama Biscuit muffins come straight from the popular cook book, ‘Baked in America,’ created by the chefs of Outsider Tart in London. Hungry yet?

    Preheat the oven to 350ºF and grease muffin pan. As you can see, I got a little generous with the spraying…

    Using an electric mixer, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt on a low speed until evenly blended.

    Adding 1 tablespoon at a time, combine butter into the dry mixture until it is crumbly and with pea-sized pieces throughout.

    Pour buttermilk into dough until moistened. Believe it or not, you don’t want the dough to come together into a ball. Instead, expect to see various sized pieces of butter and moist flour with the dry pieces still visible.

    Using a rubber spatula or spoon, fold over the ingredients from the bottom until further combined. It is not important for the mix to be evenly dispersed. Clumps are welcome.

    Using a large spoon, add the mixture evenly into the individual muffin cups. Top each muffin with a little butter to act as a baste while it bakes (optional).

    Bake for 25-30 minutes. The finished product should be a dark, golden brown with a lumpy texture. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing.
