Bake-From-Frozen Biscuits

Do you find yourself craving baked biscuits when you?re eating alone? Making even a small batch can leave you with a dozen extra biscuits that you don?t know what to do with.

This recipe (from sisterscafe) is a keeper. I didn?t expect frozen biscuits to bake up so tall and light. I?ve never enjoyed slamming a tube of refrigerated biscuits on the counter and waiting for the explosion. And then if you think about what ?ingredients? had to be added to keep them from spoiling - it takes all the fun out of biscuits with dinner.

I doubled this recipe and utilized my food processor because I don?t enjoy cutting in butter by hand. It was really fast to prepare and yielded about 40 biscuits.

Once you add the liquid ingredients, you may wonder if you?ve made a mistake. The dough doesn?t seem like it will come together until you tip it out onto your counter and knead it a bit. I let it rest a few minutes after kneading and then it was relaxed enough to roll out easily.

When I checked the progress during baking, I couldn?t believe how higha 1? biscuit could rise - it was more than 3? tall. The flavor was wonderful, and the texture was great.

And yes - I baked them right from the freezer and they turned out perfect.

Now I plan to try them in recipes that call for refrigerated biscuit dough. Stay tuned, and I?ll let you know how they fare.
