Makes great turkey sandwiches

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 2 1/2 tea. baking powder
• 2 tea. sugar
• 1 tea salt
• 5 Tbsp. cold butter, cut into small pieces
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 2 Tbsp. minced fresh rosemary finely chopped
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 egg, lightly beaten

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.

In a food processor, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Pulse to combine. Add the butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Place the mixture in a large bowl. Stir in the cranberries, rosemary, and buttermilk. Mix well. The dough will be sticky.

Transfer to a floured work surface. Dust your hands with flour and knead the dough about 10 times, or until smooth. Pat into a round about 1/2" thick. Using a 2" round biscuit cutter or drinking glass cut out the biscuits and place on the prepared pan. Gather the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used. Brush the biscuit tops with the beaten egg.

Bake until golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly or completely.
