Crusty Yummy Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F. In a large bowl, whisk together both flours, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined. Using your fingers, quickly work in butter, rubbing between your fingers to flatten as you go. (Roughly half of butter should have the consistency of very coarse meal; the rest should be in largish flattened pieces.) Make a well in mixture; pour in buttermilk. Stir quickly just until dough is well moistened and just beginning to form a mass. (It will be very wet and sticky.)
• Turn out dough onto a generously floured board or biscuit marble; sprinkle just enough flour over it to make it easy to handle. Knead quickly, without applying too much pressure as you fold. (The goal is to develop structure quickly without deflating.) Once it forms a cohesive dough, move to side of board; scrape up kneading flour.
• Sprinkle a fresh, light dusting of flour on board. (Do not flour top of biscuit dough.) Flouring only hands and rolling pin as needed, roll out dough approximately 1/2 inch thick. With a floured fork, pierce all the way through at 1/2-inch intervals. Using a 1 3/4-inch round cutter, stamp out biscuits (without rotating cutter); place them on parchment-lined baking sheets, almost touching. Gather and reroll scraps; punch out and place more rounds. Bake until biscuits are puffed slightly and brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Combine milk and oil, pour over the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.
• Turn out onto a floured surface; knead dough 5-6 times.
• Roll out dough to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with a floured biscuit cutter.
• Place on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake at 425 degrees for 13-15 minuted or until golden brown.
• Brush with melted butter to prevent hardening of the biscuits.
• Serve warm with butter, honey, or preserves.

Steps:

• Take the rack out of the oven and preheat oven to 475° fahrenheit.
• Cover rack with tin foil and fold over edges, don't grease!
• Use a large bowl, and stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In a smaller bowl whisk together the milk, and oil.
• When completely whisked add the milk and oil mixture to the flour.
• Stir them into each other until most of the dough is stirred of the edges of the bowl.
• Shape 2.5 inch to 3 inch sized spheres and drop the on the tin foil sheet spacing them 1.5 inches from one another.
• Position in the middle of the oven and bake for 8 minute.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450°F. In a medium bowl, stir the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt until mixed. Cut in the shortening using a pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in the milk until mixture forms a soft dough and leaves the side of the bowl (dough will be soft and sticky).
• Lightly sprinkle flour over a cutting board or countertop. Place dough on floured surface; gently roll in the flour to coat. To knead dough, fold dough toward you. With the heels of your hands, lightly push dough away from you with a short rocking motion. Move dough a quarter turn and repeat 10 times. Dough will feel springy and smooth.
• On the floured surface, flatten dough evenly, using hands or a rolling pin, until dough is 1/2 inch thick.
• Before cutting each biscuit, dip a 2 1/2-inch round cutter into flour to lightly coat it so it will cut cleanly through the dough without sticking. To cut, push the cutter straight down through the dough without twisting or turning. Cut the biscuits as close together as possible. On an ungreased cookie sheet, place biscuits about 1 inch apart for biscuits with crusty sides, or place with sides touching for biscuits with soft sides.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl, gradually add milk and oil, stirring until just moistened.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 2 or 3 times.
• Pat dough to a 1/2-inch thickness, and cut with a floured 1 3/4-inch bisquit cutter.
• arrange bisquits with sides lightly touching on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 450 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes.
