Divinely Delicious

I’ll be honest, y’all. I have no idea why they’re called Angel Biscuits. Is it because they’re so fluffy, like clouds or angel wings? Or because they taste so divine? Whatever the reason, we’ve been eating these delicious biscuits in our family for as long as anyone can remember. They taste like a cross between a buttermilk biscuit and a dinner roll. They’re completely irresistible! Warm from the oven with a pat of melting butter–be still my heart!

Like your favorite buttermilk biscuits, these traditional southern Angel Biscuits are made with basic pantry staples like flour, baking soda, sugar and salt. But there’s a twist! Angel Biscuits also contain yeast so they bake up extra light and fluffy on the inside. Mmmmm… heavenly!

How to Make Angel Biscuits

First dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in the buttermilk. Then, in a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, soda, sugar and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter or two knives moving in opposite directions.

Mix flour mixture with yeast mixture. Then pat or roll dough on a floured surface to ¾-inch thickness. Cut with a round biscuit cutter.

Place the biscuits in a greased rimmed baking sheet. Let rise 15 minutes before baking at 400°F for 15 minutes. Enjoy!
