Tips:
- Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flakier biscuits. Cut the butter into small pieces and work it into the flour mixture quickly to avoid it getting too warm.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the dough comes together.
- Let the dough rest: Letting the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the biscuits rise and be more tender.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and evenly.
- Watch the biscuits carefully while baking: Biscuits can go from done to overdone quickly, so keep an eye on them while they're in the oven.
- Serve the biscuits warm: Biscuits are best served warm, right out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.
