FLUFFY BISCUITS
If you're looking for a flaky basic biscuit, this recipe is the best. These golden brown rolls bake up tall, light and tender. They're good on their own, but taste even better served warm and spread with butter or jam. -Nancy Horsburgh, Everett, Ontario

THE BEST FLAKY BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
We tried several versions of this recipe, including one with double the amount of baking powder. And while the biscuits turned out puffy and beautiful, they ultimately were too dry. So, we tweaked the baking powder amount along with the butter and buttermilk and arrived at these beauties -flaky, golden, tender and moist, just as biscuits should be.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Rub 2 tablespoons of the cold butter into the flour with your fingertips until completely absorbed. Work the remaining 8 tablespoons of cold butter into the flour with your fingertips until pea-size bits of butter remain. Use a rubber spatula to stir the buttermilk into the flour until the mixture comes together into a shaggy dough. (Don't overmix the dough.)
- Lightly flour a cutting board or work surface, turn the dough out onto it and pat into a rectangle. Fold the dough in half and pat again into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Then fold the dough in thirds, as if folding a letter, and pat to an even thickness. Cut out biscuits with a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter and put on the prepared baking sheet. Press together the remaining scraps of dough. Pat out and fold the dough into thirds again and cut out more biscuits. Brush the biscuit tops with buttermilk.
- Bake until the tops are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool on the pan at least 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

TENDER, FLAKY, BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
The kids were hinting for me to make some biscuits...I hadn't made this particular recipe in years, but remembered how tender and flaky they were...and they didn't let me down...serve them hot out of the oven...once buttered of course... Enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 485 degree F. Sift the dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
- 2. Slice the butter into pats and with fingers, rub the butter into the flour, until you have pieces the size of large and small peas.
- 3. Stir the buttermilk into the flour with a fork, just until the dough starts to come together. Using your hands, start kneading the dough to incorporate all of the flour. If the dough is not sticky, add more milk.
- 4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and fold over itself 2 or 3 times ( this is what makes the layers.) Just fold and push 3 times. With your hands, pat out dough to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut out dough using a 3 inch biscuit cutter - DO NOT TWIST THE CUTTER! Twisting will seal sides, and keep biscuits from rising correctly.
- 5. Place biscuits on a greased baking sheet or cake pan, so they almost touch. Brush tops with buttermilk or melted butter.
- 6. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until desired brownness occurs. I turn the pan half way through baking time.
- 7. Brush the biscuits when taken from the oven and serve them hot. Enjoy with honey, butter, jam or gravy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425ºF. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, rosemary, garlic powder, sea salt and cayenne pepper. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or a fork until the size of peas. Make a well in the center of mixture and add milk, cheese and parsley. Gently mix until a soft dough forms.
- Roll dough on a floured work surface to 1-inch thick. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut dough into circles and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the bottoms of the biscuits are golden brown. Makes 8 biscuits; serve with *Country Gravy.
- Note: Freezer butter for 15 minutes and then use the large holes of a grater to grate into flour mixture. Makes easier to incorporate and makes a great flaky biscuit.

BETTY CROCKER'S BAKING POWDER BISCUITS (LIGHT, FLAKY AND TENDER)
I have been using this recipe for years from the first cookbook that I ever owned, my Betty Crocker's Big Red Cookbook, from my high school home economics class. I make these for my mom, and she loves them. Having my mom's seal of approval guarantees these are good because she knows her biscuits. My mom's mother (my grandma) made handmade biscuits two to three times every single day during my mom's childhood growing up on a farm.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450F degrees.
- Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in medium bowl. Cut in shortening using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in milk until dough leaves side of bowl (dough will be soft and sticky).
- Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll or pat 3/4 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 ½ -inch round cutter. Place on ungreased cooked sheet about 1 inch apart for crusty sides, touching for soft sides (I prefer crusty sides). After cutting as many biscuits as possible, lightly press-don't knead- the scraps of dough together to make 1 to 2 more biscuits.
- Bake 10 to 12 min or until golden brown. Serve warm.
- Note: This recipe doubles very well. Every time that I make these, I always double this recipe. To double, simply double all the ingredients. Also, the key to high-rise, flaky biscuits is having really fresh baking powder and not overworking the dough. Even if your baking powder is not expired, the biscuits will not rise if the baking powder has clumps inside the container. Also, I cannot emphasize enough to just lightly knead the dough 10 times; over-kneading will produce a tough biscuit. When you pat the dough to ¾ inch thickness, the baking powder will already be activating the dough to rise. Do not re-pat the dough down again because the air bubbles forming will make the biscuits flaky.
- Betty Crocker's Tips for Biscuits: Tip One: One secret to making flaky biscuits is thoroughly blending or "cutting in" the shortening and dry ingredients. A pastry blender, which breaks the shortening into little lumps works great for cutting inches If you don't have one, you can crisscross two table knives through the flour and shortening or use a wire whisk.
- Tip Two: Use a biscuit cutter dipped in flour to cut the dough, pushing the cutter straight down through the dough. If you twist as you cut, the biscuits will be uneven. Cut the biscuits as close together as possible. If you don't have a biscuit cutter, use the end of an open 6-ounce juice can or other narrow can or glass, or use cookie cutters for fun shapes. Dip in flour before cutting.
