About Butter biscuits

Butter biscuits are a classic baked treat originating from Southern American cuisine, known for their rich, flaky texture and comforting flavor. Made with simple ingredients such as flour, butter, milk, baking powder, and a touch of salt, these biscuits are typically prepared by layering cold butter into the dough to create their signature fluffiness. While butter biscuits are a delightful accompaniment to meals or enjoyed on their own, they are high in saturated fats and calories due to their butter content. They provide a moderate source of energy and are often paired with nutrient-rich foods like fruits, eggs, or lean proteins to balance their nutritional profile. To create a healthier version, substitutions such as whole wheat flour or reduced-fat butter can be used without compromising much of the traditional flavor. Butter biscuits remain a beloved comfort food, celebrated for their versatility and nostalgic appeal.
