how to make package biscuit at home

in baking •  yesterday 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold, cut into small cubes)
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk (as needed)
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract for a hint of flavor

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Mix Dry Ingredients
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.

  3. Incorporate Butter
    Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. The key here is to keep the butter cold for a flaky texture.

  4. Add Milk (and Vanilla, if using)
    Slowly add milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently after each addition. Add just enough milk to bring the dough together without making it too sticky. If using, add vanilla extract for extra flavor.

  5. Form and Roll the Dough
    Gather the dough into a ball and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter (or a small cup) to cut out round or rectangular shapes, just like packaged biscuits.

  1. Arrange and Bake
    Place the cut-out biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden.

  2. Cool and Store
    Allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cool, store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crunchy.

Tips for Perfect Homemade Biscuits:

  • For a classic packaged taste, try adding a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough.
  • Roll the dough evenly to ensure even baking and a consistent crunch.

Enjoy your homemade biscuits—they’re perfect for tea time or as a snack!
