Big Daddy Biscuits image

This recipe is from the All Recipe site by John Pickett with lots of great reviews. These biscuits are exactly what I was looking for. I modified the recipe just a bit due to suggestions by some of his reviewers and it worked great for me also. Thanks to him I can now bake biscuits I like! I'm going to make some ahead for the freezer since we liked this recipe so well.

Time 45m

Yield 9 biscuits, 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup butter (cold and unsalted)
1 cup milk (Skim)
2 tablespoons butter (melted)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in the 1/3 Cup of butter (I cut the butter into very small cubes and then used a pastry blender) until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually stir in the milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
  • Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead 15 to 20 times (I didn't actually do this, I just patted it into a nice smooth mound and then flattened with my hands to the thickness I wanted - about 3/4 inch thick). Cut into biscuits (I used about a 2 inch size). Brush off excess flour and place biscuits onto a lightly sprayed baking pan (I use lightly sprayed foil for easy cleanup). Brush tops of biscuits with melted butter.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on your oven - I baked mine for about 10 minutes). I actually lift a biscuit off the pan and see if the bottoms are a nice light golden brown and then I remove from oven. I had about 9-10 biscuits from this mix.

These biscuits were amazing! I've never had biscuits like this before. I'll definitely be making them again and again.

I'm not a big fan of biscuits, but these were pretty good. I might make them again sometime.

These biscuits were okay, but I've had better. I think I'll stick to my old recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly and my biscuits turned out flat. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These biscuits were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

I love this recipe! The biscuits are always so light and fluffy. I've also tried freezing them and they still taste great.

These biscuits were easy to make and turned out great! I used buttermilk instead of milk, and they were still perfect. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I've tried many biscuit recipes, but this one is by far the best. The biscuits are so light and airy, and they have a wonderful flavor. I highly recommend this recipe.
