Biscuit Scrap Cobblers
 
Makes 6
Ingredients
  • 3½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1¼ cups cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup cold buttermilk
  • 1 large egg, beaten
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in cold butter until mixture is crumbly. Gradually add buttermilk, stirring just until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, turn out dough. Pat dough into a rectangle and cut into fourths. Stack each fourth on top of each other, and pat into a rectangle again. Repeat procedure 3 times. Pat or roll dough to 1-inch thickness. Using a 2½-inch round cutter dipped in flour, cut 6 biscuits from dough without twisting cutter. Reserve scraps for another use. Place biscuits 2 inches apart on prepared pan. Freeze until cold, about 10 minutes. Brush with egg.
  4. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
