American Biscuits

Cultural Context

American biscuits have their roots in Southern cooking, where they are a staple at breakfast and dinner. Traditionally made with simple ingredients, they are known for their flaky texture and buttery flavor. Biscuits are often served with gravy, honey, or alongside fried chicken. Today, they have gained popularity beyond the South, appearing on menus across the country and inspiring various adaptations, including sweet versions and herb-infused variations.

1

Grate 8 tablespoons of cold salted butter into a large mixing bowl.

2

Add 3 cups of self-rising flour to the bowl.

3

Rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

4

Measure 3/4 cup of Sprite, letting it settle before adding to the mixture.

5

Combine the Sprite with the flour and butter mixture until just combined; if the dough is too hard, add a little more Sprite.

6

Flour a working surface and place the dough on it, shaping it into a rectangle.

7

Roll out the dough and fold it into thirds, then roll it out again into a rectangle; repeat this process three times.

8

After the third roll, cut the dough into 2.5-inch circles using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass.

9

Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they touch each other.

10

Preheat the oven to 400°F and bake the biscuits for about 12 minutes until golden brown.

11

If the biscuits don't turn golden brown, turn on the broiler for one minute to achieve a golden color on top.

12

Optionally, brush the biscuits with melted butter after baking.
