KFC-Style Biscuits Made at Home

I love KFC biscuits! So I made them in my way.
The tip is not to knead the dough in Step 4. For Step 6, you'll be making layers by repeating the process several times, but if you do it too much it won't plump up, so only do it about 3-4 times.
When cutting your biscuits out, the dough should be 3-4 cm thick. If you want it to crack while baking, powder a small amount of flour on the folded size of the dough. Do not powder both sides or it won't stick at all! For 5-6 7-8 cm [2.8-3.1 in] diameter pieces. Recipe by teddynancy

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put all the ingredients into a bowl except for milk. (Use chilled butter just removed from the fridge.) Cut the butter with a bench scraper to mix in.
- 2
Once the butter has been cut into 1 cm cubes, crush them with your fingers. There's only one hand in the photo, but use both hands to crush like you're washing your hands.
- 3
The mixture will develop a powdery texture like okara. The butter lumps should be the size of a grain of rice.
- 4
Pour the milk in the center and mix roughly with a spatula. It's done once the dough forms. Do not worry if there are some rice-sized pieces of butter left. Do not knead the dough.
- 5
Put the dough into a plastic bag and let rest for 20-30 minutes in the fridge. Preheat the oven to 190°C.
- 6
Take the dough out from the fridge, roll it out with a rolling pin over the bag, and fold. Repeat this process several times. Then roll out into a 1.5 cm thickness.
- 7
Open up the bag and fold the dough half. It should be 1.5 x 2 = 3 cm thick. Do not press too much. This is the key to get it to crack while baking.
- 8
Place each piece of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Reduce the heat to 180°C and bake for 15-20 minutes. When it has baked, let it cool on a cooling rack.
- 9
Keep them in a plastic bag after cooling. Toast the biscuits just before eating, they'll become crispy and delicious!

Variation: Use 1/3 of honey and 2/3 of maple syrup to make a KFC-style syrup.

KFC-style Biscuits! KFC-style Biscuits!
I love KFC's biscuits. I've tried many recipes for these, but none tasted quite like theirs. I've finally managed to come up with a recipe that captures the flakiness, crispiness, and fluffiness. If you think I'm kidding, be sure to try it yourself. You'll be amazed.Keep the butter in the refrigerator.(Making sure the butter doesn't melt is a key point.)Fold the dough over at least 6 times.If you knead it too much, it will be like bread, or not enough, and it will be like pie, so try to get a feel for the right texture!

KFC's Biscuit Scones KFC's Biscuit Scones
This is a recipe I use all the time. They are best when freshly baked. Once they've cooled, heat in a oven before eating.You can find trans fat-free shortening online.Make sure to properly preheat the oven before baking (the biscuits/scones will puff up)In Step 6, you can fold the dough over 2 or 4 times (you'll have layers like a pie).

Vegetarian KFC Biscuits Vegetarian KFC Biscuits
I became a vegetarian but I really wanted to eat biscuits from KFC, so I made this.By the way, 1 scone (40 g) is about 127 calories.At the end, after adding the tofu and soy milk, try to pay close attention to the rhythm of the food processor. Blitz in short bursts of threes (one, two, three, stop -- one, two, three, stop... and so on). If you knead it too much, the scones won't rise well and they won't crack on top, so rather than kneading the batter, just mix it in the food processor until the ingredients are just combined.

After many trials, this is closest to the original.Stop immediately once the dough has formed. Do not over-knead, or it won't crack. It's fine if it's slightly powdery.Mix briskly without over thinking.During the hot season, let the dough cool in the fridge, then the scones will crack when baking. For about 6 cm × 6 biscuits.

American-Style Biscuits American-Style Biscuits
I make these to use up whey that was left over from straining yogurt.Whey makes them soft and fluffy, but they're also pretty delicious with milk.Sift the dry ingredients if you have time.When stretching out the dough, do so carefully so that you don't rip the bag.The bottom is prone to burning while baking, so bake on the top level.They're made sweet to be eaten as-is. If you're making them for breakfast, reduce the amount of sugar by half. For 10, 5 cm [2.0 in] diameter. Recipe by cafe-cafe cookpad.japan -
