Author Kye Ameden Employee-owner since 2015 Date May 14, 2025 Comments 5 Share Share on Facebook Share by Email Share on Pinterest Share on Linkedin Share on Threads At King Arthur, we're currently obsessed with biscuits. We just launched our brand-new Buttermilk Biscuit Flour Blend , which is made with soft wheat flour and dried buttermilk to yield tender biscuits with rich flavor (no fresh buttermilk, salt, or leaveners needed). We’re also about to drop a biscuit-focused episode of our podcast, Things Bakers Know . The episode is out on Monday, May 19th — be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss our deep dive into biscuits’ American history, troubleshooting biscuit-baking tips, and plenty of hot takes about these buttery bakes. Finally, our Test Kitchen has been going through pounds of butter and bags of flour to create plenty of new biscuit recipes. From new favorites to old standbys, here are 15 of our best biscuit recipes to make if you, like us, are craving a simple, comforting bake. Photography by Rick Holbrook; food styling by Kaitlin Wayne When you need a classic biscuit with a subtle tang, make these Buttermilk Biscuits . 1) Buttermilk Biscuits These biscuits are our perfected version of a classic: Cold butter is worked into the flour to produce flaky layers, and buttermilk hydrates the dough, adding a touch of tangy flavor. The biscuits rise beautifully in the oven and boast golden brown tops. These versatile biscuits are ideal for serving with butter and jam, turning into a sandwich, or standing in as a last-minute side for practically any meal.

Cold butter is worked into the biscuit flour to create lofty layers, while a simple folding method gives these biscuits their impressive height and irresistible texture.

You can avoid having day-old leftovers by making exactly the number of biscuits you need, which is sometimes just two! This small-batch recipe is the perfection solution for those moments: Just stir together five pantry staples (you don’t even need to cut in butter!) and briefly bake.

To achieve this, the biscuit dough is brushed with a baking soda solution that makes the tops turn a deep mahogany brown, while also contributing that characteristic alkaline pretzel flavor. Our Test Kitchen especially likes enjoying these as breakfast sandwiches.

Thanks to our new Buttermilk Biscuit Flour Blend, they bake up light, lofty, and have a slight tang — a flavor that comes from both the sourdough discard and the buttermilk powder in the biscuit flour.

Simply stir together equal parts (by weight) Self-Rising Flour and heavy cream to make a soft, slightly sticky dough; once baked, the biscuits have a delicate, cake-like crumb. The dough can easily be customized with spices, herbs, or other mix-ins to create your personal favorite flavor combination.

The richer the milk, the richer and more tender your biscuit will be. 7) Flaky Biscuits These biscuits are simultaneously flaky and sturdy. The dough is enriched with an egg, which adds richness and helps bring the dough together without overworking it. Shortening is incorporated into the flour mixture for extra tenderness, then chunks of cold butter are worked in to create flaky layers. The result is biscuits that are photo-worthy: tall with striking layers and golden tops.

This recipe comes from baker Cheryl Day, who is known for her Southern bakes — pulling from her experience baking cakes, she calls for cake flour in these savory biscuits to make them pillowy soft, which is a pleasant complement to their crispy bottoms.

A combination of spinach, basil, parsley, and chives adds vibrant green color and fresh flavor. Cake flour ensures the biscuits have a tender, almost cake-like texture, while mayonnaise adds richness and nods to its namesake dressing.

The secret? Baking powder and yeast, which help ensure the biscuits rise beautifully in the oven and have a fluffy interior crumb. While these biscuits are more delicate than most, they still hold up to being slathered with butter and jam.
