Fluffy Buttermilk Drop Biscuits

Fluffy Buttermilk Drop Biscuits Recipe

When the warm butter meets the cold buttermilk, it will begin to form clumps—little droplets of fat throughout the liquid—a sign of success. The pockets ensure even distribution of fat throughout the batter, creating a lighter biscuit with less butter.

Two key techniques make these whole-grain biscuits light and fluffy: smashing the butter into the flour mixture with your fingers, and folding the dough to create layers.

Copycat Bo-Berry Biscuits Recipe

Enjoy the Bojangles favorite whenever the craving strikes with our easy-to-follow copycat Bo-Berry Biscuit recipe.

Angel Biscuits use a yeast dough, so be sure to set aside some extra time to let it chill in the fridge. Serve with honey and an assortment of jams so that guests can top them as they please.

Strawberry Buttermilk Biscuits

Strawberry Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe

Many months ago, New Orleans chef Kelly Fields stopped by Extra Crispy and made the best biscuits and gravy in the world. Other than their fluffiness, their main strength was that they were massive. There wasn't a ruler in the kitchen, but they must've been like five inches tall.

Unicorn Biscuits and Gravy Recipe

Slice the biscuit in half or keep it whole, slather it lavishly with the brightly-hued gravy, and savor only after you've posted a picture to social media. The experience is too magical to go uncaptured.

Sheet Pan Ricotta-Chive Biscuits with Baked Eggs

Sheet Pan Ricotta-Chive Biscuits with Baked Eggs Recipe

Our sheet pan take on “egg-in-a-hole” is such a perfect play for a fun, and totally photogenic, weekend brunch. A slab of rich, tender, and herbaceous biscuit cradles just-right, over-easy eggs (you’ll have set whites and delightfully runny yolks after 7 minutes of baking), drizzled with hot sauce and a sprinkling of fresh parsley. The best part? While your giant egg-filled biscuit slab lends itself to being served savory, the (normal-sized) biscuits you cut out to create holes for the eggs can be served up with sweet accouterments, like jam and honey butter, in order to achieve the ultimate sweet and savory breakfast balance. Of course, you can also just slice and serve the egg-filled biscuit portion with a side of bacon and fresh fruit, then pop your individual biscuits in a plastic zip-top bag and freeze for your emergency biscuit stash. Also, topping this entire situation with sausage gravy is not a bad idea either.

Whole-Grain Spelt and Cornmeal Biscuits

Whole-Grain Spelt and Cornmeal Biscuits Recipe

Gently pat the dough flat instead of rolling with a rolling pin. Patting preserves all the pockets of fat needed for flaky biscuits, whereas rolling pancakes them into small, dense pucks. Cut the biscuits into squares to avoid any leftover scraps. Spelt flour adds a deep nutty flavor, but you can use white whole-wheat flour if you can't find spelt.

Chicken Biscuit Sandwiches Recipe

While this chicken biscuit sandwich isn’t like the ones you’ll see at Chick-fil-a, it tastes great on a Sunday. We’ve shredded the chicken here so the creamy white barbecue sauce really covers every piece. Top off this Chicken Biscuit Sandwich with a little tangy red cabbage and a few pickles, and you’re all set. If you’re looking for a tasty sandwich for lunch or dinner, this recipe makes 8 sandwiches so you’ll have plenty to go around.

Breakfast Biscuit Sandwich with Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Recipe

These simple breakfast sandwiches are made for weekend crowds. The eggs are baked on a sheet pan so you can cut them into little squares and tuck them into biscuits along with your favorite toppings. If you have leftover cooked eggs, they can be refrigerated up to 1 day. Reheat them in the oven (not in the microwave) at 325°F for 5 minutes to keep them from drying out.

Pumpkin-Buttermilk Biscuits with Crispy Ham and Honey Butter Recipe

Pumpkin gives these light and flaky biscuits a pretty orange hue and an earthy flavor that pairs well with honey butter and salty country ham. Be sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which is sweetened and spiced.
