Best 5 Ultimate Cloud Biscuits Recipes

CLOUD BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Sift the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together into a bowl. Add the shortening and cut it into the flour mixture with a pastry blender until it resembles coarse crumbs. Whisk together the egg and milk. Add it to the flour mixture and stir until it forms a dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface. Knead the dough approximately 20 times. Roll the dough out to a 3/4-inch thickness. Cut the biscuits using a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 450 degrees F for 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the biscuits to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve the biscuits warm or let cool completely and store in an airtight container.

ULTIMATE FLAKY BUTTERMILK BISCUITS RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• We prefer King Arthur all-purpose flour for this recipe, but other brands will work. Use sticks of butter. In hot or humid environments, chill the flour mixture, grater, and work bowls before use. The dough will start out very crumbly and dry in pockets but will be smooth by the end of the folding process; do not be tempted to add extra buttermilk. Flour the counter and the top of the dough as needed to prevent sticking, but be careful not to incorporate large pockets of flour into the dough when folding. 1. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in large bowl. Coat sticks of butter in flour mixture, then grate 7 tablespoons from each stick on large holes of box grater directly into flour mixture. Toss gently to combine. Set aside remaining 2 tablespoons butter. 2. Add buttermilk to flour mixture and fold with spatula until just combined (dough will look dry). Transfer dough to liberally floured counter. Dust surface of dough with flour; using your floured hands, press dough into rough 7-inch square. 3. Roll dough into 12 by 9-inch rectangle with short side parallel to edge of counter. Starting at bottom of dough, fold into thirds like business letter, using bench scraper or metal spatula to release dough from counter. Press top of dough firmly to seal folds. Turn dough 90 degrees clockwise. Repeat rolling into 12 by 9-inch rectangle, folding into thirds, and turning clockwise 4 more times, for total of 5 sets of folds. After last set of folds, roll dough into 8 1/2-inch square about 1 inch thick. Transfer dough to prepared sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. 4. Transfer dough to lightly floured cutting board. Using sharp, floured chef's knife, trim 1/4 inch of dough from each side of square and discard. Cut remaining dough into 9 squares, flouring knife after each cut. Arrange biscuits at least 1 inch apart on sheet. Melt reserved butter; brush tops of biscuits with melted butter. 5. Bake until tops are golden brown, 22 to 25 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through baking. Transfer biscuits to wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
