ANGEL BISCUITS
Light, flaky and divine, there's a reason we call these biscuits angelic. This classic homemade angel biscuit recipe uses not one, but three types of leavening agents including yeast, baking powder and baking soda, resulting in the fluffiest biscuits imaginable. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast with a spoonful of jam or serve them as a side at the dinner table, these simple buns can go from kitchen to table in under an hour, making them an easy addition to any meal. To give these homemade angel biscuits their heavenly glow, brush them with melted butter the moment they come out of the oven.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°. Dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside.
- Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in yeast mixture and just enough buttermilk so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
- Place dough on generously floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly 25 to 30 times, sprinkling with flour if dough is too sticky. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Brush with butter. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Stir the warm water and honey in a small bowl until dissolved, then stir in the yeast; set aside until creamy or foamy, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt in a large bowl.
- Add the cut-up butter to the flour mixture and work it in with your fingertips until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and buttermilk. Stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the flour is completely moistened and the dough looks like a shaggy ball. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until the dough is doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- Lightly brush the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate or 9- to 10-inch cast-iron skillet with melted butter. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and briefly knead three or four times until smooth. Pat until 1 inch thick; fold in half like a book and pat to 1 inch thick again. Rotate the dough 90 degrees and repeat folding and patting two more times. Cut out rounds using a 2 1/4-inch biscuit cutter (dip the cutter in flour if the dough is sticky). Gently knead the scraps together once to cut out more biscuits. You should have about 10. Place them close together in the pan. Cover and refrigerate until the biscuits rise and are cold and firm, at least 3 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Brush the tops of the biscuits generously with melted butter. Bake until browned on top and firm in the spots where the biscuits meet, 20 to 25 minutes. Brush again with more melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt. Let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes, then slide out.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 3 tablespoons of the sugar.
- In a small bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbles appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Using your hands, mix the 1 cup cold butter into the flour, breaking the butter into small pebbles, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk and the yeast mixture. Gently fold the flour into the wet ingredients. Keep mixing until a ball starts to form, then gently knead, 12 to 15 times, to create a smooth dough. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and press out to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick. Fold the dough in half, press again to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick, and then fold again. Cut the dough using a 2- to 3-inch round biscuit cutter, depending personal preference. Brush the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with some of the melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet; brush the tops with melted butter.
- Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes, depending on size. Brush again with melted butter and serve immediately.

ANGEL FLAKE BISCUITS
This is a recipe that has been handed down through generations. At least 6 generations of women in my family has had and made these biscuits. I like this recipe because once you have had these, you won't want another biscuit to go with a roast, Thanksgiving dinner, or stew for that matter. They great with breakfast or as a midday snack.

- In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer stir together yeast, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar. Cut in the butter or shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the water and buttermilk until smooth. Turn onto a floured surface and knead a few times. At this point you can roll out and cut the biscuits, or refrigerate the dough in a covered container for 1-3 days.
- Roll out the dough to about ½ inch thick. I usually just use my hands to press the dough out into a square (1/2 inch thick) then I cut the square into 16 pieces. I combine the corner pieces together, to make about 14 even sized biscuits. I find this faster and easier than cutting out with a round biscuits cutter, but either method works great!
- Place cut out biscuits in buttered cast iron pan, or a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
