Flaky biscuits are a classic baked good originating from Southern United States cuisine. Made primarily from flour, butter or shortening, milk, and a leavening agent like baking powder or baking soda, their signature texture comes from the layering of fat and dough that creates light, fluffy interiors with crisp, golden exteriors. They are often enjoyed as a side dish, paired with gravies, jams, or hearty meals. While biscuits provide energy through carbohydrates and fats, they are not typically considered a health food due to their high saturated fat content and refined grains. However, homemade versions can be adapted with whole-grain flours and healthier fats for improved nutritional value. Moderation is key when incorporating biscuits into your diet. Their satisfying texture and rich flavor make them a comforting treat for occasional indulgence or as part of balanced meal planning.
