Regina’s Bacon-Thyme Biscuit Dough1. Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, and thyme in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Blend the dry ingredients on low for 15 seconds.2. Add the margarine to the bowl. Turn the mixer on medium speed and count to ten. There should be visible chunks of margarine the size of quarters in the dough. Add the buttermilk and stir until dough is moist but pulled together, being careful not to overmix.3. Generously flour a work surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in half, bringing the two short ends together, turn a half turn, and roll it out again. Spread half of the cooked bacon over the dough, and fold, turn, and roll out more two times. Add the remaining bacon and repeat for an additional two times, finishing with a 1⁄4-inch-thick dough. Use the dough as directed in the potpie recipe.These can be made ahead and frozen for later use, wrapped in plastic wrap and then in foil. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and bake as directed.Makes 2 (12-inch) or 3 (8-inch) piecrusts4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the board1⁄4 cup baking powder1⁄4 cup sugar2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme leaves11⁄2 cups (3 sticks) cold margarine, cut into 2-inch cubes13⁄4 cups cold buttermilk8 thick slices smoked bacon, diced and cooked until crisp
