Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups All purpose flour Spoon it into the measuring cup and level it off.
- 1 tbsp Baking powder Ensure it's fresh for proper rising.
- 1 tsp Salt Enhances flavor.
- 1 tbsp Sugar Aids in browning and flavor balance.
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Cold butter Must be cold to create flaky texture.
- 3/4 cup Milk or buttermilk Buttermilk adds tenderness; regular milk works as well.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C) for about 3 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the milk or buttermilk and stir just until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently pat into about 3/4 inch thick.
- Cut biscuits with a round cutter or the rim of a glass, pressing straight down without twisting.
- Arrange the biscuits in the air fryer basket with a little space between them.
Cooking
- Air fry the biscuits for 6 to 9 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Watch closely during the first batch.
- Brush with butter immediately after cooking for a richer flavor.
Notes
Keep everything cold to ensure flaky biscuits. Do not overmix the dough and watch the first batch for doneness.
