Instructions
Homemade Fluffy Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Line a cookie sheet with silicone sheet or parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt with whisk until totally combined.
- Remove butter from freezer/fridge and grate using a box grater then add to dry mix. Using hands, gently combine until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in cold milk and combine with a wooden spoon, careful not to over-mix.
- Pour scraggly dough mix onto floured counter. Fold gently until combined and then pat into a rectangle. Then, fold over itself 3-4 times, turning each time, to create all those good layers.
- Place into a final rectangle and using a biscuit cutter, cut into six biscuits. With extra dough, you can make mini biscuits.
- Drop onto prepared baking sheet and place in oven for 15-17 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from oven, top with a whipped butter and enjoy!
Whipped Butters
- - Add all ingredients to a large bowl. Using a hand mixer, mix until completely combined, about 2-4 minutes. Alternately, you can use a stand mixer. Serve immediately or store in fridge for up to a week.
