• Bake in preheated oven until golden on the edges, about 8 to 12 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl. Cut in the cold butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk a little at a time, stirring lightly between additions.
• Drop the batter by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet, and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Grease cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in whipping cream just til blended and a dough forms. (Add 1 to 2 T additional whipping cream if dough is very thick.).
• Drop dough by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or til bottoms are golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the flour, baking powder and salt into a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the dry ingredients and the butter are mostly combined. (Alternatively, cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter.) Drizzle in the milk and pulse (or stir) just until the dough comes together. Do not over mix.
• Using a regular table spoon, or large spoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto baking trays and bake until nice golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. If desired, brush with melted butter after you remove them from the oven.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Pulse in the butter just a few times, until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the milk and pulse just until the dough comes together.
• Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of dough with a cup measure or ice cream scoop onto the baking sheet (about 10 scoops). Brush the tops lightly with milk. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Mash butter with dill, capers, lemon zest and juice.
• Puree butter with mango chutney and curry powder.
• Puree butter with maple syrup and adobo sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl. Add butter to mixture and use a pastry cutter or two knives to blend until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Stir in cheese and parsley. Add buttermilk and stir until just combined.
• Use a large ice cream scoop to drop biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with flakey sea salt. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
• Put the flour, baking powder& baking soda, and salt into your food processor.
• (Or you can do it by hand. The food processor is much easier, though.) Pulse once or twice to mix.
• Then add the oil and pulse a few times until it appears mixed.
• Add the sour cream and pulse until the dough comes together (sort of into a ball but not really).
• Drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet you have sprayed with non-stick spray.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 475 degrees.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in large bowl. Combine buttermilk and 1/4 cup melted butter in medium bowl, stirring until butter forms small clumps.
• Add buttermilk mixture to dry ingredients and stir with rubber spatula until just incorporated and batter pulls away from sides of bowl.
• Using greased 1/4-cup dry measure, scoop a scant amount of batter and drop onto parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with remaining batter, spacing biscuits about 1 1/2 inches apart.
• Bake until tops are golden brown and crisp, 8 - 12 minutes. They can be made up ahead of time and gently re-heated in a 300 oven for 10 minutes.
• Brush biscuit tops with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Transfer to wire rack and let cool 5 minutes before serving.
• Test if baking powder is fresh: Mix 2 teaspoons of the baking powder into a cup of water. If there is an immediate reaction of foaming and fizzing, the baking powder is okay to use. If the reaction is at all delayed or weak, throw it away and buy a fresh can.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened., Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter., Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

• Mix butter and milk, add to dry mixture.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• In a mixing bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together.
• Make sure you are using cold butter or shortening, and cut into the dry mixture with a pastry blender, fork or knife method. The mixture will have a coarse crumb consistency when you are ready for the next step.
• Pour in the buttermilk, and stir just until everything is blended. Take care not to overmix.
• Drop Biscuit Pan method: If you have a drop biscuit pan, spoon in the dough into each well, filling it pretty full. I used a 7 well cast-iron pan. If you don't have a pan - see the next step.
• Skillet or Griddle method: Mound the dough into about 7 biscuits onto your griddle or in your skillet. (Make sure these are oven-proof!).
• Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
• Variations: For parsley biscuits, add 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. For a garden vegetable biscuit, add 2 tablepoons finely grated carrots, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, and 1 tablespoon of finely chopped green onion.
