Perfectly Flaky, Moist Buttermilk Biscuits
This rich biscuit recipe comes together easily with our homemade biscuit mix. Spreading out the dough rounds on a baking sheet (instead of placing them right next to each other) allows the edges to brown and bake up crisp. Your family and friends will beg for seconds.
Eating healthy should still be delicious.
