Delicious Air Fryer Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour (Notes: spooned & leveled)
• 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt (Notes: kosher salt)
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (Notes: cold & cut into ¼-inch cubes)

• 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

1. 1
   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

   Transfer the dough to a clean counter and knead 6 to 7 times until the flour is all incorporated. Don’t overwork the dough.
5. 5
   Form the dough into a circle that is 1 1/2 inches thick, and cut the biscuits using a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter.
6. 6
   Coat the basket of your air fryer with nonstick spray. Place biscuits 2 inches apart on the basket.
7. 7
   Cook at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.

   Melt the remaining butter and brush it on the hot biscuits.

Tips & Variations:

• Keep the biscuit dough cold.
• Don’t throw away your extra dough; pat it back out to make more biscuits.
• Do not twist the biscuit cutter when making biscuits.
• You may need to make these in batches as you do not want to overcrowd the air fryer.
• Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter after cooking.
