Ingredients
Instructions
- Add water or milk all at once to the mix, stirring 25 strokes.
- Knead the dough 15 strokes on a lightly floured board.
- Roll the dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
- Cut out biscuits and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake in a hot oven at 450°F for 10 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter biscuit, consider using buttermilk instead of regular milk. If you prefer whole wheat, substitute half of the mix with whole wheat flour for added fiber. Make sure not to over-knead the dough; this ensures the biscuits remain tender. If you want to add a savory twist, mix in some herbs or cheese to the dough before cutting out the biscuits.
Serving Suggestions
These biscuits are perfect for breakfast alongside scrambled eggs and bacon or as a side to your favorite stew. They also complement dishes like Margaret'S Molded Salad beautifully. For a sweet touch, serve them with jam or honey. Pair them with soups or salads for a delightful lunch experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the baked biscuits in a freezer-safe bag for up to a month. To reheat, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through and crisped up again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of milk for this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute almond milk, soy milk, or any other non-dairy milk to make this recipe suitable for vegan diets. Just ensure that the milk you choose is unsweetened to maintain the flavor balance in the biscuits.
What can I do if my biscuits are too dry?
If your biscuits come out dry, it may be due to overmixing the dough or not using enough liquid. To fix this, you can brush the tops with melted butter or serve them with a generous amount of gravy or a creamy sauce to add moisture.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, simply roll it out and cut the biscuits as directed. This can save time on busy mornings or when preparing for gatherings.
