These biscuits come out just as buttery, flaky, tender, and downright delicious as any of our other biscuit recipes with more ingredients. So if you\u2019re in a rush or just want to cut back on the number of steps it takes to make those homemade biscuits, this one is for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients you\u2019ll need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baking &amp; Pantry Items <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Self-rising flour<\/li><li>Granulated sugar (<strong>Note: <\/strong>this is SUPER optional. Not to mention, it would make this a 4-ingredient biscuit, but I add 1 tablespoon of sugar to almost all of my biscuits. It helps balance out the salty, cracker taste that biscuits sometimes develop. It also increases the tenderness of the biscuit and helps the biscuits rise a bit more, but again. Totally optional! Sugar should be sifted together with the self-rising flour before adding butter and buttermilk.)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dairy <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Unsalted butter<\/li><li>Buttermilk<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Equipment you\u2019ll need <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Mixing bowls<\/li><li>Measuring spoons<\/li><li>Food processor (or forks for cutting butter into the flour)<\/li><li>Dough scraper (optional)<\/li><li>Biscuit cutter<\/li><li>Baking sheet<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly is self-rising flour?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For 3-ingredient biscuits, self-rising flour is a must, but what in the world is self-rising flour? Some kind of magic? How exactly does it differ from regular, all-purpose flour?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, to start, wheat is a grain that is processed or milled to make wheat flour. Flour can also be made from rice, rye, soy, durum, almonds, and the list goes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most often, as home cooks, we are using wheat flour, but even that wheat flour comes in a handful of different varieties. Some of these types of wheat flours are defined below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Whole wheat flour<\/strong> is sometimes called graham or entire wheat flour. It is made from all three of the wheat kernel &#8211; the bran, germ, and endosperm &#8211; and that is why it is called &#8220;whole&#8221; wheat. Most whole wheat flour is milled from hard red wheat although whole wheat pastry flour, which is milled from soft red wheat, is available as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Whole white wheat flour<\/strong> is typically made from either soft or hard white wheat instead of hard or soft red wheat. It is preferred to red wheat flour when making noodles because of its lighter color and sweeter, milder taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>All-purpose flour<\/strong> is often made from a blend of hard and soft wheat, but this is not always the case. All-purpose (AP) flour comes bleached or unbleached, is typically enriched with vitamins and minerals, and may contain added malted barley. This is what most home cooks use because, as the name indicates, it is a flour blend that can be used for a wide range of baked goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cake flour<\/strong> is milled from soft wheat and comes from the absolute heart of the endosperm. This gives cake flour a finer granulation, white color, lower protein count, and makes it ideal for, you guessed it, making cakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Bread flour<\/strong> is high in protein and milled from either hard red spring or hard red winter wheat. The high protein content forms great-quality gluten and helps create structure in baked goods. Sturdy, elevated loaves of bread are possible because of this structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Self-rising flour<\/strong> is just all-purpose flour with leavening agents like baking soda and\/or baking powder and often salt already mixed in. Although it can be a useful shortcut, as in this recipe, self-rising flour&#8217;s formula does vary from brand to brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilesouleats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_7489.jpg\" alt=\"overhead view of 3 ingredient biscuits\" class=\"wp-image-1767\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways to spice up your 3-ingredient biscuits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Replace half of the butter with cheddar cheese<\/li><li>Add plain or roasted garlic (minced) to the dough<\/li><li>Sprinkle the tops of biscuits with black pepper and chives before baking<\/li><li>Fold cinnamon and brown sugar into the dough for a sweet treat<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There aren\u2019t many biscuit recipes easier and tastier than these 3-ingredient biscuits.
