EGGLESS BISCUIT RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425º F and line a cookie sheet with nonstick parchment paper. Set aside.
• Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl and mix well. Set aside.
• Use a pastry cutter to cut cold butter into the flour mixture, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Note: you want to see small, pea-sized pieces of butter throughout the dough. If you don't have a pastry cutter use your finger. You can also grate the frozen butter.
• Add in the buttermilk and mix with a fork until the ingredients are combined. The dough will be sticky. You should be able to see the butter pieces in the dough.
• Transfer your biscuit dough to a well-floured surface and use your hands to gently work the dough together. If the dough is too sticky, add flour, 1 tablespoon at the time, until it is manageable.
• Once the dough is consistent, fold in half over itself and use your hands to gently flatten layers together. Rotate the dough 90 degrees and fold in half again, repeating this step 6 times but taking care to not overwork the dough.
• Gently pat out the dough some more, so that the rectangle is roughly 10 inches by 6 inches. Cut dough into biscuits using a floured glass or biscuit cutter. Do not twist cutter when cutting; this crimps the edges of the biscuit and impedes its rise.
• Place biscuits on a cookie sheet. If time allows, refrigerate the biscuits for 15-20 minutes, this short chill will help them maintain their shape while baking. This is totally optional, if you are in a rush, go ahead to the next step.
• Brush the top of the biscuits with heavy cream, to enhance browning (optional). Bake until golden brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture using whisk until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk and stir until mixture is moistened.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly, about 15 turns. Pat or roll the dough out into a 3/4-inch thick round. Cut circles with a 2-inch biscuit cutter or cup and arrange on a baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve warm.
