Ready in 20 minutes, these Copycat KFC Biscuits are light and flaky; you will love these with jam, gravy, or more butter.ย ย

These Copycat KFC Biscuits are a super simple, delicious side for any meal of the day! They’re incredibly easy to make and are perfect for meals year-round! I am partial to a nice hot biscuit on a cold winter morning during the holidays, but the best thing about these biscuits is that they’re so easy; you can have them whenever you want!
I am a huge sucker for breakfast, it is my favorite meal of the day. One of my favorites is homemade biscuits and gravy with sausage and eggs! Yum. I am drooling just thinking about it. I mean , check out the flaky layers.

These are the best biscuits you will ever make, and they are so easy to make. They taste just like the biscuits from KFC, but they are better because they are homemade.
I got this recipe 12 years ago but didnโt make it until 8 years ago. Since then, I have never made breakfast that used frozen or refrigerated biscuits, as these are just as easy. Now, I canโt say we havenโt ever had thoseโฆ store-bought onesโฆ.my husband uses them when he is in charge. Needless to say, the kids have deemed me the biscuit champion.

How do you make easy biscuits?
Preheat the oven to 415 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt.
Cut in the butter using a pastry blender, your hands, or a knife and fork until the flour resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the milk and stir with a fork until the mixture comes together.
On a lightly floured surfac,e pull out the dough and knead until it is smooth.
Roll out dough until it is ยฝ inch thick.
Cut out dough using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, or you can cut it into squares.
With the remaining dough, reform and roll out to ยฝ inches, repeating until all the dough is used and the biscuits are made.
Arrange biscuit dough on prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until risen and a golden brown.
Serve immediately or set on counter or serving dish until ready.

Notes

Am tried this biscuit recipe its very yummy supper cool in taste
Am si happy that i have to try this
Thank you so much
Is there a way to freeze some of these and then bake them later. If so can you please tell me how. It is just my husband and I so I am looking for a way to be able to enjoy them later.
Hi Karyn, we haven’t tried freezing this dough but you can always give it a try. Similar recipes say to roll out the dough, freeze on a baking sheet, then place the frozen discs in a freezer-safe bag or container and store up to 3 months before thawing and baking. If you give this a try, please let us know!
I love how simple you have made this recipe. I am going to try this tonight.
Yes! These are exactly what i was looking for! Iโm an experienced biscuit maker, but was unable to make my go-to because I had no sourdough discard. These are fluffy, flaky and full-flavored and I will absolutely be saving this one. I added 1/8 tsp citric acid to the milk (to create buttermilk) & used a scant 1/2 tsp for the cream of tartar. They rise with gusto, so stick to the 1/2โ rolled thickness.
Could u share your sour dough biscuit recipe? I do sour dough too
Oh goodness, I don’t personally have one or I would. Let me know if you find a good one ๐
That sounds like a simple recipe to follow! It appeals to me, and I intend to give it a try tomorrow. I hope my biscuits turn out nice and tasty. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.
