Instructions
Creating KFC Biscuits is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
3. Cut in Butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add Buttermilk: Pour in the buttermilk and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
5. Roll Out Dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Gently knead it a few times until it comes together, then roll or pat out to about ¾-inch thickness.
6. Cut Biscuits: Use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits. Gather any scraps, knead gently, and cut out more biscuits until all the dough is used.
7. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the cut biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
9. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with butter or your favorite toppings.
These steps ensure you achieve that perfect biscuit texture that’s both flaky and buttery!
