Equipment
- biscuit cutter, or glass
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons very cold salted butter
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 325 ℉
- Mix together dry ingredients for biscuits
- Cut 3 tablespoons of butter into tiny pieces and then work them into dry ingredients using a fork until evenly combined
- Add milk and combine into a dough
- If dough is still really sticky, add flour (1 tablespoon at a time) until you can touch dough without it sticking to your fingers
- Place dough on a floured surface and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick
- Use biscuit cutter to cut dough into 4-5 individual biscuits (I used a juice glass)
- Spray bottom of air fryer basket with nonstick spray
- Add biscuits and cook for 6-8 minutes until they just turn golden on top
- Melt remaining 1 tablespoon of butter
- Top biscuits with melted butter
- Continue cooking for 3-5 more minutes until lightly browned and cooked through
Notes
- Refrigerate leftover biscuits for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Freeze on parchment paper, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag.
- Reheat biscuits in the air fryer from the fridge or frozen at 300℉ until warmed through.
- Make sure the biscuits have space between them in the air fryer so that they brown evenly.
