  • 2 1/4 tsp yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 5 cups flour

  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • cooking spray

  8. Option Two: The dough can sit, covered for up to a week in the fridge. Cut out as much biscuits that are needed and bake as usual. ~ or ~ add more flour to the dough, cut into biscuits and freeze. To bake: thaw the amount of biscuits needed on the counter, covered with a dish towel (about 1/2 hour). Bake for 13 - 15 minutes or until golden.
