Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and position a rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut butter into 1/2-inch cubes and set aside 1 tablespoon.
- In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk and chopped green onions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Add the chilled butter (except the reserved tablespoon) to the dry ingredients and rub it in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined and a moist dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 3-4 turns, just to bring it together.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3/4 inch.
- Using a floured 2-inch cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out rounds from the dough. Reroll any scraps and cut out additional biscuits.
- Place the biscuits 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the biscuits with the melted butter and sprinkle lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the biscuits cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
