Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups all- purpose flour plus more for rolling out the dough
1/4 cup plus 2 tblsp yellow cornmeal
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tblsp sugar
6 tblsp unsalted butter (not margarine) chilled and cut into 1/2 inch pieces plus more for topping
3/4 cup plus 1 tblsp buttermilk
honey if desired

Directions:

Heat oven to 400 deg. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar.
You can use pastry cutter or if you prefer, you can use your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture. Use a wooden spoon to stir in 3/4 cup buttermilk until the mixture holds together.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1 inch thickness. You can then cut your biscuits with cookie cutter or an upside down floured drinking glass, cut out eight rounds and place upon the parchment paper. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the remaining buttermilk. Bake untl nice and golden brown and puffy, this should take approximately 12 minutes.
These are delicious with a dollup of butter and a drizzle of honey :)
