• 4 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

3. While whisking vigorously, stir in the olive oil until a dressing comes together.
4. Drizzle the dressing into the bowl and toss well.

Homemade Biscuits with Honey Butter

Homemade biscuits always offer a nice, comforting treat for any time of a cold winter day.  Honey butter makes them a bit more special than the standard variety and couldn’t be easier to make.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp white sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter, chilled
• ¾ cup whole milk
• 4 tbsp CBD Infused Wildflower Raw Honey
• 4 tbsp salted butter

Preparation:

1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
2. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
3. Into a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
4. Remove your unsalted, cubed butter from the refrigerator so that it’s still cold.
5. Add it to the dry ingredients.  
6. Use your fingers to break it apart until you get the texture of coarse crumbs.
7. Stir in the milk using a spoon just until the dough comes together, preventing overmixing.
8. Pour the dough out onto a floured surface. 
9. Fold it over itself before flattening it.  
10. Do this about 5 times, as this will create a flakier biscuit.
11. Using your hands, flatten the dough to about 1 inch thick.  
12. Dust the top with more flour.
13. Use a biscuit cutter to create biscuits before placing them ½ inch apart on your cookie sheet.
14. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until the top of the biscuits is golden-brown.
15. While the biscuits are baking, combine the honey and salted butter in a small saucepan, stirring until the butter is melted and you have a blended sauce.  
16. Drizzle on top of the biscuits once they cool.
