Angel Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup buttermilk, room temperature
• 1/2 cup warm water (about 110°F)
• 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast

Instructions:

1. Prepare the yeast mixture:

• In a small bowl, combine the warm water and instant yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it’s bubbly.

1. Mix the dry ingredients:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

1. Cut in the butter:

• Add the softened butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

1. Combine wet ingredients:

• In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk with the yeast mixture, stirring to combine.

1. Mix together:

• Pour the buttermilk and yeast mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

1. Chill the dough:

• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors meld and makes the dough easier to handle.

1. Preheat the oven:

• Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

1. Shape the biscuits:

• On a floured surface, turn out the chilled dough. Roll it out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a floured glass.

1. Bake:

• Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown on top.

1. Serve:
   • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These biscuits are delightful when warm, and they can be served with butter, jam, or even alongside a meal.
