Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using melted butter instead of oil. You can also substitute half of the milk with buttermilk for added tanginess. If you're looking to reduce sugar, try using a sugar substitute or honey. Make sure not to overmix the dough to keep the biscuits fluffy. These biscuits pair wonderfully with Pudding Cheese Pie for a delightful breakfast spread.
