Air Fryer Biscuits
Air Fryer Biscuits are quick, easy, and turn out perfectly golden and flaky every time. No oven needed, just a few simple ingredients, and you’ve got warm, buttery biscuits in minutes!
Servings 10 Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 3 tsp Baking Powder
- ½ tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ cup Butter cold and cubed
- ¾ cup Buttermilk cold
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt by whisking them together until everything is evenly mixed.
- Add the cold, cubed butter and work it into the flour using your hands or a pastry cutter until the texture is crumbly with small bits of butter still visible.
- Pour in the buttermilk and stir gently just until the dough comes together. Try not to overmix — it should stay soft and airy.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it lightly about 6 or 7 times, just enough to bring it together. You’ll still want to see chunks of butter for that flaky texture.
- Press the dough into a thick round, about 1½ inches thick. Use a round biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out your biscuits, reshaping scraps as needed to get more.
- Spray your air fryer basket lightly with nonstick spray. Place the biscuits in, leaving a couple inches between them so the air can circulate properly. You’ll likely fit 4–6 per batch.
- Cook in the air fryer at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden and crisp.
- Melt some butter and brush it over the warm biscuits as soon as they’re done for an extra buttery flavor and a nice finish.
- These biscuits taste best while warm — serve them with butter, honey, jam, or your favorite gravy!
