Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (7.5 oz.) can pillsbury refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/4 cup melted butter
1/8 tsp. garlic salt
1/8 tsp. dried parsley flakes
1/4 tsp. dried minced onion

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • 2. Remove biscuits from can, and place them in a row in an 8x4x2-inch loaf pan; separating tops of rows slightly. (I spaced my biscuits out and unevenly in the pan.)
  • 3. Combine remaining ingredients; pour over the biscuits.
  • 4. Bake in oven for 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

Tips:

  • Properly measure your ingredients: Precise measurements are crucial in baking. Use a kitchen scale for accurate results, especially for ingredients like flour and sugar.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, top-notch ingredients yield better-tasting biscuits. Choose high-quality butter, flour, and baking powder.
  • Keep your butter cold: Cold butter creates flaky layers in the biscuits. Cut it into small pieces or grate it frozen for even distribution.
  • Work quickly: Overworking the dough can result in tough biscuits. Mix the ingredients just until they come together and avoid over-kneading.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough allows the gluten to relax and helps prevent the biscuits from spreading too much while baking.
  • Bake at a high temperature: A hot oven creates steam, which helps the biscuits rise quickly and develop a golden-brown crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Leave enough space between the biscuits on the baking sheet to allow for proper airflow and even baking.
  • Watch the baking time: Biscuits bake quickly, so keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking. They are done when the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Golden biscuits are a delightful and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With careful attention to ingredients, techniques, and baking conditions, you can create perfect, flaky, and golden-brown biscuits that will impress your family and friends. Experiment with different flavor variations, such as adding herbs, cheese, or fruit, to create unique and delicious variations. Remember, practice makes perfect, so keep baking and enjoying the delightful aroma and taste of freshly baked golden biscuits.
