‍

‍

This has been my GO TO Buttermilk Biscuits recipe for so long now. Whether I'm making them for fried chicken biscuits or plain with jam and/or eggs, this is the recipe I use.

‍

Ingredients to make Buttermilk Biscuits:

  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp. Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp. Baking Soda
  • 2 tsp. Sugar
  • 1 tsp. Salt
  • 6 tbsp. Cold Butter, grated or sliced into cubes
  • ¾ cup Buttermilk

‍

‍

How to make homemade Buttermilk Biscuits?

  1. Preheat oven to 450F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt together.
  3. Add the grated butter. Use a fork or your hands to mix until crumb-like texture.
  4. Add the buttermilk and mix until a moist dough.
  5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to ½” thick. Use a 2” cookie cutter or glass to cut the biscuits. Place on the prepared baking pan.
  6. Bake for 8-12 minutes, until golden brown on top.

‍

TIPS for Making Perfectly Flaky Biscuits:

  • Use COLD Butter.
  • Incorporated the Butter first before adding any other liquids.
  • Pat the dough out on a floured surface, rather than rolling it before using a cookie cutter.
  • Do NOT overwork the dough. Keep things to a "just combined" mindset ;)

Ingredients to Make Buttermilk Fried Chicken:

  • 1 ½ lb. Chicken Breasts, boneless & skinless
  • 1 ½ cups Buttermilk
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • ½ cup Honey
  • ½ cup Hot Sauce
  • 1 tbsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp. Italian Herb Seasoning
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • Neutral Oil, for frying

‍

Why is the Buttermilk Important for Fried Chicken?

Marinating the chicken breasts in the buttermilk is what makes the chicken juicy and tender after cooking! So the long it sits, the more tender your chicken will be. It also acts as a "sticky" agent to create those beautiful flaky crispy edges when frying.

‍

How to make Hot Honey Fried Chicken?

Do you ever have those silly "ah ha" moments that you look back on? For me, its the concept of homemade hot honey. I truly couldn't tell you why my mind thought it to be more complicated then it is, guess that proves me wrong for never slowing down to think about it LOL

Homemade Hot Honey is simply equal parts hot sauce and honey. Of course, you can adjust the hot levels to taste.

And lastly, you just brush the hot honey mixture over your fried chicken AND LOOK HOW AMAZINGLY TASTY they look! Heheh

‍

‍

Assembling the Hot Honey Fried Chicken Biscuits:

  1. Slice the buttermilk biscuits in half lengthwise.
  2. Add a fried chicken nugget brushed in the hot honey sauce. Add the top slice of the biscuit.
  3. Garnish with a brush of butter and flaky salt, or a drizzle of honey. Plate with pickles (of course) ;)

‍

‍

How to keep fried chicken crispy?

The best way (in general) to keep foods crispy is to place them on a baking cooling rack over a sheet pan. Place them in the oven at 250F to 300F to keep warm as you fry the remaining batches or prepared the rest of the dish.

‍

How to reheat fried chicken?

Place the fried chicken on a baking cooling rack set over a sheet pan (for extra crispiness) or on a parchment paper lined sheet pan. Bake at 400F for about 5-6 minutes, flip them over, and bake an addition 5-6 minutes, until crispy and warm through.
