Angel Buns
Angel Buns are light, fluffy, and tender yeast-raised biscuits that make a delightful treat for breakfast or snacks. With a subtle sweetness and soft texture, they are perfect for sharing with family and friends or enjoying with favorite spreads and jams. Easy to prepare and irresistibly tasty.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water.
- Add Bisquick and milk to the yeast mixture.
- Knead the dough lightly about 10 times until smooth.
- Roll out the dough and cut into circles with a biscuit cutter.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, ensure your water is not too hot when dissolving the yeast. You can substitute the milk with any non-dairy milk if you're looking for a lactose-free option. If you don’t have Bisquick, you can make your own by combining flour, baking powder, and salt. Keep the dough covered to prevent it from drying out while you work.
Serving Suggestions
Angel Buns are delightful served warm with butter or jam for breakfast or brunch. They pair beautifully with a fresh fruit salad or a side of scrambled eggs. For a unique twist, serve them alongside a warm bowl of Corn Casserole Pudding for a comforting meal experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze Angel Buns?
Yes, you can freeze Angel Buns! After they have cooled, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To enjoy, simply thaw and reheat as needed.
What can I add to the dough for extra flavor?
You can add herbs like rosemary or thyme for a savory twist, or mix in some grated cheese for a cheesy version. Additionally, adding a dash of cinnamon or vanilla can enhance the sweetness if you plan to serve them with jam.
How do I know when the dough is ready to roll out?
The dough is ready when it is smooth and slightly elastic after kneading. If it feels sticky, you can sprinkle a little extra Bisquick on your work surface. Avoid over-kneading, as that can make the buns tough.
