NEVER-FAIL YEAST BISCUITS



Never-Fail Yeast Biscuits image

A high-rising yeast biscuit that still tastes like a baking powder one. If I want biscuits for breakfast, I make up the batter the night before and let it rest in the bowl, covered, on the counter overnight. In the morning, I just flop it out on a floured surface, fold it a few times, pat it out, cut and bake.

Time 30m

Yield 18 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
1/4 cup water
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 Tbs. vinegar added)

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in water, set aside.
  • Mix dry ingredients in order given, then cut in shortening until it's the size of small beans.
  • Stir in the buttermilk and yeast mixture. Dough will be very sticky.
  • Cover bowl with towel and let sit until ready to use. (At least 1 hour, but it is fine if it sits for a couple hours.)
  • Scrape out onto well floured board. Flip the dough over and knead or fold lightly (4-6 times).
  • Roll out about 1/2" thickness and cut with sharp biscuit cutter. (Cutting with a dull cutter or water glass "seals" the dough and won't let the biscuit rise as they should.)
  • Place on lightly greased baking sheet and let raise slightly (10-30 minutes).
  • Bake at 400º F until light brown, 10-12 minutes.

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 teaspoons white sugar
½ cup butter, chilled and diced
¾ cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  • Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until golden.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flaky layers in the biscuits. If the butter is too warm, it will melt into the flour and the biscuits will be tough.
  • Work quickly: Don't overwork the dough. The more you work it, the tougher the biscuits will be. Once the dough is just combined, stop working it.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps the butter to solidify and makes it easier to roll out. This also helps the biscuits to rise higher in the oven.
  • Cut the biscuits close together: This will help the biscuits to rise evenly. If the biscuits are cut too far apart, they will spread out too much in the oven.
  • Bake the biscuits at a high temperature: This will help the biscuits to rise quickly and evenly. A high temperature also creates a crispy crust.

Conclusion:

These biscuits are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are also a great snack or breakfast food. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect biscuits every time.
