In reply to Linda Brown Elston Ward. Hi Linda! It does sound like you may be over-working the dough. Make sure you are measuring your flour properly too. If you watch this video, it should be helpful. Good luck!

In reply to Marie. Hi Marie! You can wrap them in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag or container. Bake straight from frozen; they may need just a minute or two longer :)

One of my favorite recipes to use with the children at my Montessori school! They can do it almost independently and the biscuits always turn out flaky and delicious! Five stars from my group of 3-6 year olds!

I am 65 years old, and I have never been able to make homemade biscuits. I found this amazing tasty biscuits and my only problem ( I refuse to give up ) I think that I might be overworking the dough ? they really are delicious but a little tough?

In reply to Sam Merritt. How would you recommend freezing the raw dough (for example, wrap in parchment paper, vacuum seal, etc)? Should it be thawed prior to using? Would cooking time be affected?

One of the better biscuit recipes I’ve made. I cut ’em into rectangular units to avoid having to meddle with the leavin’s. They accept tasty gravy just the same.
Cheers!

I folded the butter into the dry ingredients via the kitchen aid mixer and followed the instructions. It came out perfect

In reply to Amy Tuccia. I'm so sorry to hear this happened, Amy! You don't need baking soda here, did you add it? Are you using a generic baking powder? Is there a chance the baking powder was expired?

Mine were great but after they cooled they had a really strong chemical taste? I wonder if it’s from my baking powder or soda? It was a terrible taste

In reply to Debby Jie. Hi Debby! Unfortunately I would not recommend using baking soda here.

In reply to Elsa. Hi Elsa! Almond milk should be just fine, I've had a number of readers say they've used it successfully. I hope you and your husband both enjoy the biscuits!

Planning to make these today and am excited to give it a go! My husband is dairy free so would almond milk work as a replacement? I know sometimes dairy alternatives can change the results and some recipes require a “creamier” alternative

It’s a really lovely recipe, thanks. But can I substitute baking pwd. for baking soda?

In reply to Ann. Hi Ann! Several others have commented using a 1:1 gluten free flour with success. :)

I’ve been using this recipe for years to make my Sunday morning biscuits and gravy, which is my family’s absolute favorite breakfast! I double it to have enough biscuits for our large family and the amount of gravy I make. I also get pretty warm making breakfast, so sometimes I put the flour mixture (which is in a glass bowl) into the freezer for a bit before I add the frozen butter to make sure everything stays very cold while I’m patting it out with my warm hands. I also don’t like waste or fiddling with the dough too much, so after I’ve done my folds and turns, I pat it into a rectangle and just cut it into rectangular biscuits, sure the edge biscuits may rise unevenly, but my family doesn’t mind – if we’re having guests over I’ll trim the edges for an even rise, but the little rectangular biscuits have become my signature. 😅

In reply to Peaches. Either way will work. I would personally freeze the raw dough. :)

If making these for future use do I freeze them raw or bake and freeze?
