Y’all, let me tell you about my absolute favorite midnight craving that’ll have you swooning faster than a Southern belle at a garden party – Honey Butter Biscuit Sliders!
Listen up, sugar! When those late-night munchies hit, you don’t want just any old snack. You want something that’ll make your taste buds dance and your soul sing. These little pieces of heaven combine the comfort of homemade buttermilk biscuits with a sweet-and-savory filling that’ll make you forget all about those basic midnight snacks.
Here’s what you’ll need for these heavenly bites:
– 2 cups self-rising flour (White Lily if you’re a true Southerner!)
– 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
– 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
– 2 tablespoons honey
– Country ham or crispy bacon
– Extra honey butter for spreading
Now honey, before we continue – if you’re loving this recipe already, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for more delicious Southern comfort food recipes that’ll make your mama proud!
Let’s get cooking:
1. First things first, preheat that oven to 450°F. Trust me, hot and fast is the way to go!
1. In a large bowl, cut that cold butter into your flour until it looks like coarse crumbs. Y’all, don’t you dare use warm butter – we want flaky layers!
1. Pour in the buttermilk and honey, stirring just until combined. Don’t overwork it, sugar – treat that dough like a delicate flower.
1. Pat the dough out on a floured surface (about 1/2 inch thick) and cut with a small biscuit cutter.
1. Bake those babies for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and heavenly smelling.
While they’re still warm (but not hot enough to burn your fingers off – learn from my mistakes, y’all), split those biscuits and spread them with honey butter. Add a piece of country ham or crispy bacon if you’re feeling fancy (and let’s be honest, when are we not?).
Sweet babies, these sliders are smaller than regular biscuits, making them perfect for those midnight cravings when you want something satisfying but don’t want to feel like you need to run a marathon tomorrow!
