Ingredients
¾ cup all-purpose flour, plus flour for board
⅓ cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, in pieces
1 egg
⅓ cup buttermilk or well-stirred plain yogurt
Preparation
- Step 1
Mix flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl or in food processor. Either cut in butter using fingertips or a fork to make a crumbly mixture, or add butter to processor and pulse until crumbly.
- Step 2
Beat egg and buttermilk or yogurt together and stir in, mixing to make a very soft dough. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons of buttermilk, if needed, to hold the dough together.

I, too, did not need to add additional liquid. However, one question: the cranberry cobbler that these biscuits are used on requires 45 mintutes baking time. Won’t that length of time dry out the biscuit?

I found this dough too wet to shape in any way. I use King Arthur flour, if that makes a difference.
