The old iron skillet

The old iron skillet is pretty good for baking biscuits

Strawberry rhubarb jam and a cup of coffee for breakfast

 

ORMOND BEACH, FL - - Saturday is a day for experimenting with breakfast and putting aside the hard boiled egg and toast in favor of biscuits, scrambled eggs, bacon and coffee.  This has been going on for a couple of weeks as Lydia searched the internet for different recipes for "easy drop buttermilk biscuits."

     Most recipes were about the same, but then we found a baking idea away from using a baking sheet.  Hence the iron skillet.  And the skillet in the oven works great.  Now I have to shuffle cooking bacon and scrambled eggs to be ready close to French press coffee-time and hefting the iron skillet and biscuits out of the oven. The next goal is trying to figure out how not to get the biscuits oozing together as they bake.   No matter, big or small; oddly shaped or whatever, Lydia's biscuits are scrumptious.
