Fresh Homemade Biscuits made with JAH Poly Flour and a few extra ingredients to get that Tim Hortons Style Biscuit.
Servings: 12 Biscuits
Equipment
- 1 Baking Sheet
- 1 3.5 inch Square Cookie Cutter
- 1 Small Bowl & Brush
- 1 Food Processor - blade attachment
Ingredients
- 3 C Flour
- 1/2 C Lard
- 3 Tbl Cornstarch
- 3 Tbl White Sugar
- 2 Tbl Baking Powder
- 1 Tbl Kosher Salt - - or less
- 1/8 tsp Citric Acid
- 1 1/4 C Milk - - or other Liquid (Water, Buttermilk)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 F. With rack in middle position or one notch higher.Combine all Ingredients together (except the liquid) and Mix in a Dough Mixer with a Paddle for 5 minutes or in a Food Processor for 1-2 minutes or until well combined.
- Add liquid and mix until just combined. Adding more liquid if necessary to achieve a dough that is neither too sticky or dry.
- Flatten out with the Palm of your hand to about 1/2 inch. This should give you a rectangle that is 7 inches wide and 10.5 inches long. Press out squares with a 3.5 inch square cookie cutter and then slice each square from 1 corner to the opposite to create triangular biscuits the same as Tim Hortons.
- Transfer to a baking sheet with space between each piece and readjust the shape if needed. Brush the tops with Milk or melted Butter and let rest 5-10 minutes.
- Bake for about 12 minutes or until browned. Halfway through brush again and flip the baking sheet around so that the biscuits at the back are now at the front. Remove and let rest 10 minutes.
Notes
Once fully cooled store in a bread bag or large Ziploc bag.
To reheat biscuits, place them in the microwave for 20 seconds.
