My Best Tips

Everything needs to be cold cold cold. Don’t work that dough too much or you’ll lose the fluff. Cut straight down with your biscuit cutter no twisting or you’ll seal those edges.

Perfect Pairings

These biscuits shine with fried chicken eggs and bacon or a drizzle of honey. Perfect hot from the oven with butter melting inside.

A Southern Legacy

Over 1000 biscuits per store daily that’s how popular these are. Fresh every 20 minutes is Bojangles’ promise and now you can have that same freshness at home.

Make Them Your Own

Try adding cheese herbs or crumbled bacon to the dough. Sometimes I mix in dried cranberries and a touch of sugar for breakfast.

Keep Them Fresh

Store in an airtight container 2 days max. Wrap in foil to reheat. Want them anytime? Freeze unbaked biscuits then bake straight from frozen.

Pure Southern Comfort

These biscuits bring that true taste of the South right to your kitchen. Serve them any time of day and watch them disappear.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Why use self-rising flour? Self-rising flour ensures even distribution of leavening agents for consistent rise. It already contains salt and baking powder.

→ Can I make these without buttermilk? Regular milk with a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice can substitute for buttermilk. Let it sit 5 minutes before using.

→ Why brush with butter after baking? Brushing with butter adds flavor and keeps the tops soft while giving them a slight shine.

→ How thick should I roll the dough? Roll dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Too thin and they won’t rise properly, too thick and they may not cook through.
