Why You Will Love This Pancake Mix Biscuit Recipe

Get ready to fall head over heels for our buttermilk pancake biscuits recipe! This simple recipe is not only convenient to make but results in scrumptious, buttery biscuits.

One reason to adore this simple recipe is the clever use of pancake mix. I like using Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix. It simplifies the process without compromising on taste.

Making it perfect for busy mornings or lazy brunches. Plus, these biscuits come out of the oven with a golden-brown color. That is then topped with melted butter to add to these delightful flaky biscuits.

Looking to indulge your taste buds further? This recipe offers endless possibilities for variations. Whether you're a fan of savory cheddar cheese biscuits or you prefer a touch of sweetness with a little sugar. These biscuits can adapt to your cravings.

How To Prepare These Delectable Delights

A box of pancake mix, a measuring cup with milk, and two tablespoons of butter.

Let's dive into the art of making this pancake mix biscuit recipe. While it may seem like a departure from traditional biscuit recipes. You'll be amazed at how simple and rewarding it can be to make this recipe.

Grab a large mixing bowl, and add in the pancake mix and milk. Use a fork or wooden spoon to mix these two ingredients together until a rough dough forms. Sprinkle a bit more of the pancake mix onto a clean work surface and transfer the dough to the work surface.

We will be kneading the dough for a bit until a soft dough forms. Push the dough away from you, then fold it back onto itself. Doing so about 12-13 times, then grab a rolling pin and roll the dough out to ½-1 inch thickness. Keeping in mind thicker biscuits may take longer to bake.

Using a round cookie cutter, cut the dough into biscuit shapes. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut the biscuits and got 7 biscuits. Whereas using a 2-inch cookie cutter I got 11 biscuits. The size of the cookie cutter will determine the amount of biscuits you get.

Then place on a prepared baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper or silicone liner. Bake in a preheated oven that's at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

The baking time will vary since all ovens bake differently, my oven took 12 minutes. You want the tops of biscuits to have a golden brown color to them.

Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Melt unsalted butter in a medium bowl then brush the top of the biscuits with melted butter. Voila, you just created delicious, homemade biscuits that will delight your taste buds.

Store the buttermilk biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days. Any longer than this and the fluffy biscuits will become stale.

To keep longer you could store them in the airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Or even freeze them for up to 2 to 3 months.

Variations To Explore

In this section, we'll explore the exciting variations you can try to tailor these tender biscuits to your preference. Simply by adding additional ingredients into the biscuit mix you can change the final product. Here are some great additions that can be made.

For an extra kick of flavor add a cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the dough. It'll infuse the biscuits with delightful cheesy goodness. Then serve these along with a savory dish.

For garlic herb biscuits try mixing in some garlic powder and herbs to the dough. Or turn them into bacon and scallion biscuits by adding some crumbled bacon and finely chopped scallions into the dough.

If you're looking for a bit of sweetness in these pancake biscuits. Consider adding a pinch of sugar or a drizzle of honey to the dough. It'll lend a subtle sweetness to the biscuits which makes them perfect for both savory and sweet toppings.

Love the combination of raisins and cinnamon? Add a teaspoon of cinnamon and ¼ cup of raisins to the dough before baking. Or fold in a ½ cup of fresh blueberries for blueberry bliss biscuits.
