I made these the other day and this is the best recipe i used. A hint is for cutting the butter: grate it in a cheese gratter and then add it in. Doing this makes it so much easier.

Most biscuit recipes have no egg. I used 1- 1/4 cups buttermilk instead of milk with the egg, but you could try leaving out the egg… using 1-1/4 cup buttermilk and see what happens… if there is flour that doesn’t work in easily to the ball, just leave it out. You could also try 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup buttermilk. I have a hunch that the recipe will be forgiving.

I always used an old receipe from a Pillsbury cookbook I got for a wedding gift, 40 yrs ago. The trick my Mom, a great cook, said, Never roll and mess with your dough very long. It makes it tough. I like to keep the dough rolled out thick, then cut the round pieces with a juice glass, could use a jelly jar, pint jar or any round tool. Have fun cleaning up the floury mess… I scrape with a dry tool ( I have a crumb dust pan and broom that’s wooden scraper & pan, an antique for dusting crumbs off a linen table cloth, could use a plastic spatula) and scrape the dry/sticky dough off the counter long before I come with a wet cloth. It makes it sooo much easier and your dish rag isn’t gummy and having the need to be in the laundry. Double duty. Happy Baking! BTW, the butter or white gravy sounds divine! MJ

Tried this recipe last night…delicious! I used butter and Crisco. My little 3 yo grandson who only eats chicken tenders, pb&j sandwiches and French fries loved them! I’ve never made biscuits w an egg before but I will always use this recipe from now on….THANKS!

Absolutely the best biscuits I’ve ever tasted. Now I went the lazy way and used my food processer and it worked like a charm. I know now why people ditched the flour sifter, that was the hardest part; sifting flour. I probably have made homemade biscuits about once in my life and since I feel as old as dirt that is a long time……..
