Buttermilk Pancakes

 If you are looking for a fluffy pancake, look no further. One recipe yields about 18-20 pancakes, so good for a crowd. I will make a full batch and then freeze the leftovers for another day.

Sheet Pan Meatloaf

 

This meatloaf is very tasty and easy to make. The original recipe is from Ree Drummond.  What I love about it is that every slice is covered in sauce and the sauce is nicely caramelized. I like to serve with homemade macaroni and cheese and a salad. This also makes great sandwiches. 

Biscuits

 

These buttery biscuits are so light and fluffy. The trick is to use cold butter and laminate the dough.

Laminated dough is a culinary preparation consisting of many thin layers of dough separated by butter or other solid fat, produced by repeated folding and rolling. Such doughs may contain more than eighty layers.[ During baking, water in the butter vaporizes and expands, causing the dough to puff up and separate, while the lipids in the butter essentially fry the dough, resulting in a light, flaky product.

Laminating dough is easy to do. You simply roll the dough out to a rectangle and then fold the dough into thirds, rotating the dough by 90 degrees and repeating the process two more times. After that you cut the biscuits and bake.
