Basic Baking Powder Biscuits (Modified for Stand Mixers) image

These biscuits are light inside, slightly crispy on the outside. They are terrific for breakfast served as biscuits topped with a hearty sausage gravy (such as Sawmill Gravy recipe #: 56251) or as an accompaniment to any stew or "meat and potatoes" type dinner. (Note: Mixer speed settings are for KitchenAid stand mixers; adjust accordingly for the brand of mixer that you will be using)

Time 25m

Yield 8 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup unsalted butter, cold
3/4 cup 2% low-fat milk, cold
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425° F.
  • Place flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into mixer bowl with flat beater. On Speed 1, stir dry ingredients for a little under a minute to evenly distribute.
  • Cut cold butter into cubes and add to mixer bowl with the dry ingredients. Turn to Stir Speed and mix about 1 minute, or until mixture resembles small crumbs a little smaller than peas. Stop and scrape bowl.
  • Add milk. Turn to Stir Speed and mix until dough starts to cling to beater. Usually less than 30 seconds. Avoid overbeating.
  • Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and gently pat the dough to 1/2-inch to 1 inch thickness. Cut with floured 2-inch biscuit cutter or floured glass.
  • Place on greased baking sheet and (optional) brush with melted butter, if desired.
  • Bake at 425° F for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden. Serve immediately.

I've also made these biscuits with whole wheat flour, and they're just as good.

I like to add a little bit of grated cheese to the dough. It gives the biscuits a cheesy flavor.

I was skeptical about making biscuits in a stand mixer, but I'm so glad I tried it! The dough came together quickly and easily, and the biscuits were light and fluffy.

I've tried many biscuit recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The stand mixer made it so easy to mix the dough, and the biscuits were cooked to perfection in just 12 minutes.
