Good stuff, I’ve never been able to make a good biscuit but these are pretty tasty if I do say so myself! Thanks for sharing!

Ok, I have had a biscuit or two in my life…they have all been generally tasty and puffy and flaky. But these where amazing..like I could not believe it. It totally 10pm and I made them and I am standing over my sink and I can not stop eating them. I rolled my dough to 2 inches thick and used a 2inch (I think) biscuit cutter, so they are huge and beautiful and oh my. Thank-you for creating these!

Thanks everyone! I was also “biscuit challenged” so I’m glad to help out

@daylehogue The measurements seem a little strange because I was completely making things up as I went along with this recipe! I finally had a successful experiment and stuck with it. You could certainly try changing things, let us know how they turn out

I substituted heavy cream for the buttermilk because I didn’t have any – these were really great with chocolate gravy. =)

These were super easy! My first successful biscuit making session. I have been biscuit and pancake making challenged until now! Thanks!

I was looking for something quick & easy to make biscuits & gravy for dinner tonight (one of my husband’s favorites!) and stumbled upon this recipe. Was also excited to use up some of the buttermilk in the fridge. As I was measuring & mixing I thought 8 tsp of baking soda sounded like alot. That’s almost 3 Tablespoons! But I went with it because I’m no expert & thought if I used less I may mess up any ratio between baking soda & baking powder & have hard flat biscuits. They came out of the oven nice & tall. A little heavy & definitely bitter, which I think was too much baking soda. Wondering if 8 tsp was a typo…? Would think you could reduce the amount down closer to 1 Tablespoon??

These were very good basic biscuits…easy to make, the house smelled great while they were cooking, and they turned out with a light texture. Great for jam or honey!

Jamie,
For years I’ve struggled with making biscuits and have always failed. Everytime I would tell my husband that I’m going to make biscuits his eyes glaze over and beads of sweat form on his forhead. My friends and co-workers know my dirty littel secret, but after making your biscuits this past Saturday I’ve been redeemed, vindicated and triuphant! Thank you so much for a receipe that even a biscuit challenged cook can do!
