Flakes and tastes great. Batch can be multiplied but watch salt amounts. I use margarita glass to cut 2 large biscuits about 3/4 inch thick when it's for just my wife and myself. If you want 8-10 normal size, double the recipe.

Steps

1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, whisk. I don't recommend using an electronic mixer for biscuits if you over work the dough at any step you will not have a flakey biscuit.
3

Knife in chunks of butter. Work it into the flour with a fork about 30 ish times, mashing and stirring. Forget what people say about making it pea sized.
4

Add egg and milk. Stir about 20 25 times, the outcome you want is flour moist and incorporated but still have chunks of butter.
5

Drop Dough onto a floured cutting board. Fold and rotate the dough toward you about 6 or 7 times. No more. Pat to about 3/4 inch thick.
6

I use a margarita glass to make 2 large biscuits, one for my wife and 1 for myself. (If you want to make 8-10 normal biscuits just double recipe)
7

I Bake these on a baking stone at about 450 degrees for 13-17 minutes.
8

Enjoy!

. Check out my recipes as I add them. I bake, cook many types of food and I love to Smoke beef and pork. I use an offset wood smoker with an Bluetooth digital thermometer. If im feeling lazy I just go to my son's house and use his Traeger Grill. 😁 Fire and forget is boring LoL but yummy also. As the saying goes, " It's hot, brown and lots of it". I'm also working on a small cookbook for family. ❤️
