About One biscuit

A biscuit is a small, soft, and flaky baked good that originated in southern American cuisine, though its roots trace back to British scones. Made from simple ingredients like flour, butter, milk, baking powder, and a touch of salt, biscuits are known for their light, buttery texture and versatility. While they are often enjoyed as a savory side dish or paired with sweet spreads, classic biscuits are a source of carbohydrates and fats. They provide quick, easily digestible energy, but they lack significant amounts of fiber, protein, or vitamins. Whole-grain flour or added seeds can boost their nutritional value, while overly processed versions or those laden with high-fat toppings can contribute to excess calories and unhealthy fats. When eaten in moderation as part of a balanced meal, a biscuit is a delicious comfort food that captures the essence of homestyle cooking.
