Who doesn’t love eating a homemade biscuit?  Warm, flakey, and fresh out of the oven, homemade biscuits can be the perfect accompaniment to almost any meal.

While it might seem like a big pain to make fresh biscuits for dinner, it really is a pretty quick process and isn’t difficult at all!  My kids think I’m a rock star when I make homemade biscuits, so today I’m sharing a tasty recipe so your family can think you’re a rock start too!

Homemade Biscuit Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 1 Tbsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup cold butter
• 3/4 cup milk

Directions:

STEP 1.  Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl.

STEP 2.  Use a knife to cut the cold butter into small pieces.  Use a fork or pastry blender to blend the mixture into it is in coarse crumbs.

STEP 3.  Add the milk, then mix until the dough is combined.  Roll out the dough onto a lightly floured surface, then cut with a biscuit cutter or circle cutter.

STEP 4.  Bake biscuits on ungreased cookie sheet until they are a light golden brown, about 10 minutes, depending on your oven.

Now comes the best part- eating the biscuits!  There are many ways to enjoy a delicious homemade biscuit, but my very favorite way is with a little butter and some strawberries.  Mmmmmm……

I recently bought the new Smucker’s Fruit & Honey Strawberry Jalapeno Fruit Spread at Walmart.  It’s better for you and is sweetened with honey- I was so curious about the flavor!  It tasted like strawberries but kicked up a notch with a little heat from the jalapeños.  It was delicious!

Right now you can earn $1.00 off Smucker’s Fruit & Honey Jalapeño Spread too, which is even more of an incentive to try it!  The sweet of the strawberries, the heat of the jalapenos, and the warm, flakey biscuits all combine for a tasty snack or hearty dinner side.

If you’ve never made homemade biscuits before, give it a try!  I can guarantee your family will be impressed and will be happy that you did!

Happy baking!
