These Southern-style fluffy biscuits are a delightful addition to any meal, offering a soft and buttery texture.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and cold butter. Use a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Using cold butter helps create a flaky texture in the biscuits.
Gradually add the milk to the flour mixture, stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Add the milk slowly to control the dough's consistency.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it to a 1-inch thickness. Cut into biscuit shapes using a round cutter.
Flour the cutter to prevent sticking and ensure clean cuts.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
For a golden top, brush the biscuits with milk before baking.
Serve the biscuits warm with butter, jam, or your favorite topping. Enjoy!
Warm biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
