Jam-filled Buttermilk Biscuits

I thought these yummy jam-filled buttermilk biscuits might be a lovely Valentine’s Day treat for your loved ones! I made them over the holidays for my family and the recipe is from a Seattle and Portland-based bakery that I grew up going to, Grand Central Bakery. They’re one of my favorite things to order and are technically called “Jammers”, but that name drives me crazy for some reason. The mistake I made with the recipe is that I mixed the dough too smooth, so really listen to the instructions and leave it more rough/chunky. Make sure to keep big and little pieces of butter in the dough. Find the recipe HERE.
One of my goals for 2013 is to get better at documenting cooking, baking and my recipes. I’ve had a lot of requests, so I’m really going to work on it! Like, maybe I could have an after picture for these biscuits that I worked so hard on? Yeah.

I have a buttermilk cake in the oven as I type :D I must be drawn to all things buttermilk at the moment and these look delicious especially with the bright red jam <3 Pinning them now!
BUTTERMILK CAKE!? That sounds so nice.
Yum. That is all. Just yum.
Yes, YUM.
Ok I wasn’t hungry until I visited this blog. Now I’m drooling. Oh, and I have always loved Grand Central Bakery jammers- until I tried the ones at Bakery Bar. In my opinion they’re even better. Worth a try. :)
Ooooh! Good to know. I will have to compare and contrast… maybe a few times.
Yum! I love the bacon egg bolo from Grand Central – one of my favorite ways to do breakfast on the go. These look delicious!
I get the egg and tomato jam on a bolo sometimes–SO GOOD.
YUM! Those look so good! I love to bake but my husband has taken the biscuit making prize. I’m SO gonna request he make these for me A.S.A.P.
Get him to work! They are pretty easy–he should be able to whip some up in no time.
Oh my, these look scrumptious! And more food related blogging is on my list too…
We can do it!
They’re so pretty! I tried biscuits for the first time when I went to America in October and now want to master them, because I love them so much. Might try plain before moving up to jam-filled, though…looking forward to seeing more of your cooking exploits!
Thanks, lady!
