Sage Biscuits

Ingredients:

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons coarse salt or regular salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh or ground sage (pineapple sage is great with this)
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 1/2 cup low fat buttermilk or whole milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.  Add sage and combine.  Add butter and mix until
the texture is like unto coarse meal with a few bits of butter remaining.  Add milk and combine.   Put the biscuits on a baking sheet about 1.5 inches appart,
 making them about 3/4 inch thick each.  You can also roll the dough out and use a biscuit cutter for consistent looking biscuits. 
Bake until puffed and golden (10-15 min). Transfer to wire rack, Serve warm or at room temp.
