Recipes FAQ

What should the dough look like?

The dough should be slightly sticky and soft, but not too wet. If it's too dry, add a splash of milk. If it's too wet, add a bit more flour.

Can I freeze the biscuits?

Yes, you can freeze the biscuits for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply place them in the oven at 350 degrees F for about 10-15 minutes.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the flour.
  • Handle the dough as little as possible to prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Don't twist the biscuit cutter when cutting the dough as this will prevent the biscuits from rising properly.
  • Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter before baking for a golden brown finish.
