This is another post which will entail one of my favorite breakfast treats – “Dusty Biscuits”. For quite some time, I’ve actually searched for how to really make the best biscuits that people enjoy. This recipe has been a complete hit.

In this post, we’ll cover how to make my “dusty biscuits” – which can make for a tasty breakfast treat, brunch and/or side for dinner.

These take only about 15-20 minutes to make, if you can master all the steps and get the dough together quickly. It takes some time to learn – trust me. Nonetheless, it’s worth the trial and error to get that perfected mold.

Prep

You’ll need to gather a few ingredients and do some prep work to start off this recipe.

Step 1 – Gather ingredients/materials

  • Bisquick (2 cups)
  • Milk (2% preferred – 1/2 cup or slightly more based on feel)
  • Pam cooking spray (or other, I prefer pam though!)
  • Medium – large bowl for mixing
  • Wax paper
  • Small oven pan
  • Cutting board
  • Small cup for shaping dough

Step 2 – Preheat oven

  • Preheat oven to 425F.

Recipe

After all the necessary ingredients and prep work has been assembled and followed, we can now proceed to making the biscuits!

Step 1 – Make the dough

  • In a medium-large bowl, begin to combine ingredients (using small increments of milk to bisquick).
  • Sift small increments of milk to bisquick mixture until it reaches a point where its “doughy” but not too sticky.
  • Add more bisquick as needed (TIP: get the dough as close to being sticky but never reach that stage entirely).

Step 2 – Mold the mixture

  • Proceed to mold the mixture into a ball.
  • Grab wax paper and sprinkle a small amount of bisquick onto the surface.
  • Proceed to press the ball into a pizza like dough formation on wax paper.

Step 3 – Cutting the dough

  • Grab your small cup and begin to cut out circles.
  • Rinse and repeat until all dough has been used.

Step 4 – Prepare to cook!

  • Spray pam or any type of cooking spray onto an oven safe open pan.
  • Spread circles of dough cut from the small cup onto the pan.
  • Place pan into the pre-heated oven for 8 minutes.

Step 5 – Enjoy!

  • Take biscuits out and serve with butter or one of my occasional favorites, garlic salt and land of lakes unsalted butter cooked in a small pot over the stovetop for glazing.

Final Result

If you followed these steps correctly, your biscuits should turn out like the above. Keep in mind, a lot of cooking is based on feel and trial and error. If they came out cracked a little, it’s because your dough was a bit too coarse. This can be avoided by getting the mixture just as close to being sticky but almost like a piece a playdoh. It takes time, but it’s sure to be a great treat for multiple occasions!
