Tips

  • For 1 cup of self-rising flour, combine 1 cup of all purpose flour, 1.5 tsp of baking powder, 1/4 tsp of salt. Mix thoroughly.
  • You can also add in 2 tbsp of honey for honey butter biscuits.
  • I also recommend adding in 1:1 ratio of honey to butter to brush on top in the end.
  • Always use a shifter for your flour as well. It helps ensure the end results in a fluffy biscuit!
