Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk

For the Finish:

  • Melted butter (for brushing)

Why These Biscuits Hit

Flaky, buttery layers meet that iconic sweet-heat drizzle. Crisp on the outside, soft and tender inside, these biscuits bring comfort with a bold twist. Perfect for breakfast spreads, brunch boards, or anytime you want sweet and savory in the same bite.

The Mike’s Hot Honey Move

A warm drizzle of Mike’s Hot Honey melts into the golden tops, adding glossy sweetness with a subtle kick. It balances the rich butter and tender crumb for that craveable sweet-heat finish.

Biscuit Game Plan

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3: Cut in the Butter

Add cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with small pea-sized pieces of butter.

Step 4: Add Buttermilk

Pour in cold buttermilk and stir just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix, that’s the key to flaky layers.

Step 5: Shape & Cut

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold once or twice for extra layers, then cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter.

Step 6: Bake to Golden

Place biscuits on the baking sheet with sides touching for soft edges (or spaced apart for crispier edges). Bake 15–18 minutes until golden brown.

Step 7: Brush & Drizzle

Brush tops with melted butter while warm. Finish with a generous drizzle of Mike’s Hot Honey and serve immediately.
