Biscuits are a staple of American cuisine, but how to make them at home is surprisingly hard.
Many recipes call for instant-read thermometers or a food processor, but they are often a hassle to make.
I tried to make my own, but found it just too easy.
Here’s how to bake your own homemade biscuit recipe in under 10 minutes, with some great recipes and tips for beginners.
1.
Heat the oven to 350°F.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients.
Add the baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Mix until everything is evenly coated.
Bake the biscuits for 20 minutes, or until they’re golden brown.
The biscuit should be golden brown, but don’t let it be too crispy.
Remove from oven and cool.
This biscuit will keep for up to 2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
2.
Prepare your homemade biscuits for your next party, party outing, or birthday celebration.
Mix together the spices in a large bowl.
Spread out a thin layer of biscuit dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spread the biscuits out and bake for 15 minutes, until they are golden brown and crisp.
Remove them from the oven and let cool completely before slicing and serving.
3.
Combine the spices and maple syrup in a medium bowl.
Add them to the dough and mix until they form a paste.
Roll the dough out into a thin round, about 3 inches in diameter.
Put the round in a parchment or waxed paper-lined pan and bake it for 15-20 minutes until golden brown (it will be a little dry on the edges).
Remove from the pan and let the biscuits cool completely.
Serve warm or cool, as desired.
4.
Prepare the filling.
Mix the spices, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl.
Pour the mixture over the biscuit and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Repeat until you’ve covered the biscuits.
5.
Top the biscuits with chopped apple slices and a drizzle of honey.
