  • If the dough is too dry add in another 1-2 tablespoons of buttermilk.
  • Break the dough into bite sized pieces and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the crumbles for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden.

Chicken Pot Pie Soup

  • Melt the butter and heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat.
  • Once melted add in the carrots, celery, onion and garlic.
  • Stir together then add in the salt, pepper and poultry seasoning stirring to coat in the spices.
  • Cook the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes or until they start to soften.
  • Add in the flour and stir everything together letting it cook for about a minute.

  • Lower the heat to medium and simmer the soup partially covered with the lid for about 10 minutes.
