Handy Tips
- For extra flaky biscuits, avoid over-kneading the dough.
- Use cold ingredients for the best texture, especially the butter.
- Try brushing the tops with melted butter before baking for a golden finish.
Ingredient Swaps
- All-purpose flour: You can use whole wheat flour for a healthier option, but it might change the texture.
- Buttermilk: Substitute with milk mixed with 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice for a similar effect.
- Butter: Coconut oil can be used for a dairy-free version.
