KFC Biscuits Recipe
A quick and tasty way to enjoy homemade biscuits inspired by the KFC favorite.
Ingredients
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| All-purpose flour | 2 cups |
| Baking powder | 1 tablespoon |
| Sugar | 1 tablespoon |
| Salt | 1/2 teaspoon |
| Unsalted butter (cold, cubed) | 1/2 cup |
| Buttermilk | 3/4 cup |
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, work it into the dry mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs.
- Create a small well in the center and pour in the buttermilk.
- Gently stir just until the dough comes together — avoid overmixing.
- Place the dough on a floured surface and lightly knead a few times to form it into a cohesive mass.
- Roll the dough out to about ¾ inch thickness.
- Use a biscuit or round cookie cutter to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared tray.
- Gather and reroll any leftover dough to cut out additional biscuits.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown.
- Once out of the oven, brush the tops with melted butter for extra flavor.
- Serve warm and enjoy these soft, flaky KFC-style biscuits with your favorite toppings.
