Campers liked my square biscuits the other morning. Square biscuits save the time of punching out individual biscuits with a biscuit cutter. And because you avoid re-forming the dough after the first cutting, this method ensures that each biscuit will be equally tender.
All I do is dump the dough onto a greased sheetpan and press it into the pan. I pre-cut the dough (6x8 or 6x9 for an 18x26-inch sheetpan) and bake at the normal temperature. The biscuits come out standing tall.

Great Idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ted. A Sysco 5# biscuit mix will fit in a full-sized sheet pan. It makes nice, tall biscuits as you can see in the picture.
ReplyDeleteWhere's the sausage gravy?
ReplyDeleteNow, you could make the gravy extra thick and put it through a square mold ...
ReplyDeleteI've done this for a while now, but I roll it out on the table and use my pizza cutter. I like your idea about putting it in the pan first. saves a step!! Doing 500 biscuits at a time, every step saved is a blessing...
