Southern Style Biscuits #BRFoodieFAM

September 1, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Last week I was in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, hanging out with blogger friends, the fabulous GO BR ladies, Christy and Katie and getting a tour of one of the best cities ever. I truly love Baton Rouge! One of our stops was to a local coffee shop called Brew Ha Ha,  that not only makes tasty lattes, but they are also known for there cake balls and now food menu. Everything is simply down home cooking, you know the kind Mom or Grandma make.

Welcome to Brew Ha Ha

Well, when I was there I had for the first time ever, biscuits and gravy. I’m not much of a gravy fan, but let me tell you, oh my gosh amazing.  I would order this again and again!  So darn good!  I can’t believe I haven’t had this dish earlier in life.  That’s just craziness!
Biscuits and Gravy
When I was there, I ordered the Hot Skillet that tasted mighty good, and it was served with a biscuit, that I smeared jam all over. I just love biscuits!   I was inspired by my Brew Ha Ha biscuit and my first time ever trying biscuits and gravy, that I decided to make my own Southern Style Biscuits.
Southern Style Biscuits
I am not kidding you when I tell you this, but these are the best biscuits ever! They are light, fluffy and don’t fall apart when you eat them. I was truly impressed with myself when I took that first bite. I love when you make something and it exceeds your expectations and this biscuit recipe did that for me!
Southern Style Biscuits
The recipe is so easy to make too! The recipe calls for buttermilk, but I didn’t have any on hand so I decided to make my own by taking one cup non-fat milk and 1 tsp. lemon juice and mixing it together. Not only did I save a trip to the store, but I also saved on calories. Once I mixed my batter together I flattened the dough out onto a floured surface and kneaded the dough. I used a glass to cut out the dough, since I didn’t have a 2″ cookie cutter. You can see a picture here.  Then I placed them on a baking sheet.  I lined my baking sheet with parchment paper, but it’s not really necessary.  You can check the picture out here.

Southern Style Biscuits
The recipe should make 12 biscuits, but I got 17 of them. When I cut out the first batch of biscuits I don’t think I made the dough thick enough, but I did better on the second round. Either way your going to have a light, fluffy biscuit and the calories will still be low. You really can’t go wrong with this recipe.

Yummy, I just love my biscuits and a matter of fact, I’m eating one right now. Since I had so many biscuits, I froze some of them. I hope they turn out just as good when defrosted?

    Always happy to see our beloved south represented on your site! I learned to bake at the knee of my Georgia mountains Grandmama and I wanted to share a couple of tips. I’ve been making buttermilk biscuits for about 40 years now and there are a couple of secrets.
    First, you want to use a soft winter wheat if you can find it. White Lily brand will make a very tender biscuit with less gluten and less protein.White Lily can be hard to find out of the southeast. And bake your biscuits in a very hot oven, preferably at 500 degrees. Don’t over-mix, just enough to wet the dry ingredients.
    Surprisingly, the very best biscuit I have made was with coconut oil! I use it just like I would crisco or butter, a nice big 1/4 cup glob not really measured but seriously scooped. The biscuit is so tender on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. I never use anything else now.
    Love that sausage and gravy over buttermilk biscuits! Brown some lowfat sage sausage, sprinkle a handful of flour and stir in a can of evaporated skim milk. Voila! Healthy (somewhat) sausage and gravy! Enjoy your blog and I intend to make many of your recipes!

Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired to clean under my kitchen sink from my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs. Let me tell you I couldn’t be happier.
🧽
When I opened my cabinets, everything fell out. I had like 10 million Target bags jammed in the back, sponges everywhere and 1/2 empty bottles of cleaners.
🧽
I measured my space in the cabinet and was lucky enough that the items Claire purchased for her under the sink were the exact fit for my cabinet. 
🧽
The drawers are a game changer. Highly, highly recommend the drawers. I filled them with sponges, and dishwasher tabs. Now they are not lost and easy to grab. 
🧽
The storage bins were purchased on Amazon. Check out Claire’s Instagram page for links.
🧽
Is your under the sink organized?

Sully is my little ham. He saw me taking photos and went over and had to pose. He sure loves the camera. 😂

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?
