Method

Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Mix in buttermilk and olive oil until forms a thick dough.

Wrap dough in clingfilm and chill in fridge for two hours.

Add plum tomatoes and olive oil to 12 in. ovenproof pan and cook on medium heat for ten minutes.

Add cherry tomatoes, leaves of three sprigs of thyme and salt & pepper. Cook for a further 20 mins or until tomatoes are split and softened. Remove from heat.

Dot biscuits over tomatoes evenly, ensuring none are touching. Brush with olive oil. Place pan in oven and cook for 20 mins.
