Author: Shawn

Ingredients

  • 1 cup yellow corn meal (145 g)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (90 g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 5 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 6 Tbs unsalted butter cold, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine dry ingredients by giving them 5 good pulses.
  • Distribute butter over the top, and pulse about 10 times, or until butter is cut in and the mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • With processor running, add buttermilk and process until dough comes together.
  • On a lightly-floured work surface, divide dough into two pieces, shape into rectangles about 1-inch thick. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to one day.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking sheets.
  • Place dough between two pieces of plastic wrap and roll to a thickness of 1/8-inch.
  • Cut into 1 1/2 inch diamonds and transfer to prepared sheets.
  • Bake about 15 minutes, or until dry and lightly browned around the edges.
  • Cool completely, then store in an airtight container.
