  • 1 head Garlic Substitution: Use roasted garlic paste if fresh garlic is unavailable.
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Substitution: Gluten-free all-purpose flour can be used for a gluten-free option.

  • 1 tbsp Minced Rosemary Substitution: Thyme or chives can be used for a different herbaceous flavor.
  • 1 tbsp Granulated Sugar Can be reduced or omitted for less sweetness.
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt Substitution: Sea salt can also work if kosher is not available.

Method
 

Making the Biscuits
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Wrap fresh garlic in foil, then pop it in the oven for about 1 hour, until soft and golden. Let it cool before mashing into a creamy paste.
  3. Whisk together flour, baking powder, minced rosemary, granulated sugar, kosher salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.
  4. Add the roasted garlic along with grated, chilled butter to the dry ingredients.
  5. Incorporate the buttermilk gently into the mixture until a shaggy dough forms.
  6. Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few moments until smooth, then roll it out into a rectangle, approximately 9 by 12 inches.
  7. Laminate the dough by folding it into thirds and rotating it; repeat this rolling and folding process two more times.
  8. Cut the dough into squares using a sharp knife, and place them on your prepared baking sheets. Refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to firm up.
  9. Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle them with flaky sea salt. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
