Description:

Are you craving for some warm and freshly baked biscuits but don't have any shortening or milk on hand? No worries! This easy biscuit recipe without shortening or milk will satisfy your taste buds without the need for these ingredients. These biscuits are fluffy, buttery, and perfect for breakfast or as a snack.

Prep Time:

The preparation time for this recipe is around 10-15 minutes.

Cook Time:

The cook time for this recipe is around 10-15 minutes, depending on your oven.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/3 cup of unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3/4 cup of water

Equipment:

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Pastry cutter or fork

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
  3. Add the cold and cubed unsalted butter into the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add the water into the mixture and stir until a dough forms.
  5. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead it gently for about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  7. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out the biscuits. You should be able to make around 8-10 biscuits.
  8. Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  9. Bake the biscuits for 10-15 minutes or until they are golden brown on the top.
  10. Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes:

  • For best results, use cold and cubed unsalted butter. This will help create a flaky and tender texture for the biscuits.
  • Do not overwork the dough as this can result in dense and tough biscuits.
  • You can brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter or honey for added flavor.

Recipes FAQ:

What can I use instead of a biscuit cutter?

You can use a glass or a jar with a circular rim instead of a biscuit cutter.

Can I use salted butter?

While you can use salted butter, it's better to use unsalted butter so you can control the amount of salt in the recipe.

Can I freeze the biscuits?

Yes, you can freeze the biscuits for up to 2-3 months. Make sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing them in a freezer bag.

Recipe Tips:

  • Make sure your butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the dry ingredients.
  • If you don't have parchment paper, you can use a non-stick baking sheet instead.
  • Don't twist the biscuit cutter or glass when cutting out the biscuits. This can seal the edges and prevent the biscuits from rising properly.
