Knott’s Berry Farm Buttermilk Biscuits
Hey guys! Hope you all had a great day!
One of the gifts we received for Christmas was a Knott’s Berry Farm gift pack,
the Sunrise Breakfast Gift Pack
which included a pancake mix, a buttermilk biscuit mix, syrup, and two jars of assorted preserves.
(I put a link to the gift pack so you can see how pretty it is, as I forgot to take a picture of it before I took everything out of the box!)
I decided to make the biscuits!

There are a couple of ways you can make them:

I chose to just make the biscuits, because I was craving biscuits, and also because it was the least labor intensive
I mean, all you had to do was mix the biscuit mix with water to make the dough! So simple to make! And then all you had to do was drop the dough by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet!

Okay, so you know when you make cookies and it always says it will make about 36 cookies (or something like that!) and you only end up being able to make like 20 or something?! Well, this was the opposite! It says on the box that it will make approximately 9 biscuits, but I was able to make 15! And they were really big spoonfuls of dough too! It wasn’t like I was trying to make the biscuits small so that I could make more!
Anyway, this is how the biscuits came out:

Now, these don’t look like the pictue on the box:

But that’s okay, because I actually think that they look kind of homemade:

I think they came out like this because even though I used a spoon in order to measure out each portion of dough, I used a fork to get the dough off the spoon and onto the cookie tray. The reason I used a fork instead of another spoon is because it said to mix the dough with a fork, so it just made sense. Also, since there was some dough leftover even after I had made 15 biscuits out of it, I kept adding a little bit of the remaining dough to each of the biscuits, and I didn’t bother flattening down the top of the biscuits.
One of the nice things about these biscuits is that you can make them pretty big and also put them close together, because they don’t spread at all!


Here’s a closeup of one of the biscuits:

It browned a little bit on the top, but it was still kind of hard to tell if it was done or not.
But, the bottom of the biscuit browned evenly – any longer in the oven and I think it would have burnt, this was just perfect:
Here what it looked like on the inside:

Mmmm, it was delicious! It wasn’t doughy at all and wasn’t dry at all either! It was just perfect! And the flavor was so delicious, wasn’t overpowering but wasn’t nonexistent either, it was just the perfect amount of flavor. And the texture in the middle of the biscuit was so soft, but was also slighty crisp on the outside! These biscuits were amazing! I loved them! And all you have to do is add water to the mix to make them! Oh, and I should mention that I was going to spread some of the blackberry or strawberry preserves on them (the gift pack came with a jar of each), but after tasting one bite of a biscuit, decided it didn’t need it because it was fine on it’s own! I just had a glass of milk with it to wash everything down, but that’s it – you don’t need anything else with these biscuits, no preserves, no nothing! They are perfect all by themselves! Of course, that just means that I can save the blackberry and strawberry preserves to spread on bagels or toast. And I still have to make pancakes with the pancake mix and can’t wait to try out the Boysenberry syrup (came with the gift pack) as well! I’ll let you know how everything else is when I try them!
Have a good night, everyone!
