I've moved to Hawaii. Which has tons and tons of great food things. Among them, however, I've been hard pressed to find a biscuit.
When I went home, it was the first thing I ate breakfast.
But alas, I am no longer at home, and am thusly thrust into the land of ono food sans southern tradition.
Solution: make biscuits myself!
Lazy wife solution: bisquick!
And, not to put too fine a lazy point on it, mine don't even call for milk or measuring.
Let's be real folks: Bisquick does most of the hard work for us. Their biscuit recipe calls for box mix and milk. Problem is in the vaguely lactose intolerant and infrequent grocery shopping household milk is a rare commodity and with a hurricane a-comin I'm not taking my butt to the grocery store.
So I figured I'd use what I got. The water on top of my Greek yogurt? That's kinda buttermilk-ish right? Club soda? Sure - probably better than plain ol water.
Results: delicious.
No Milk Bisquick Biscuits
A nub of butter
A glop of Greek yogurt + water from surface
2 gulgs of club soda (or seltzer or online I even saw 7up)
Put a pan of any moderate size in the oven with the nub of butter till melted.
In a big bowl (yes, sorry - gotta dirty up another bowl) glop in the yogurt and yogurt water. Pour over dry bisquick mix. Stir. Add glug of soda. Mix more. I looks dry add another glug.
Dump into pan with melted butter. Score with a scraper or knife. Bake at 400ish. Wait 10 minutes.
Consume with eggs and jam - bacon if you got it.
