Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 Can Pillsbury Grands Biscuits 16.3 ounces, 8 Biscuits
  • 2 - 4 Tablespoons Butter

Instructions

  • Open the can of Pillsbury Grands biscuits and separate the 8 biscuits according to package instructions.
  • Then with your hands, separate each biscuit in half. You'll then have 16 thinner biscuits.
  • Add two tablespoons of butter to a large fry pan. Melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and the bubbles start to subside, add the biscuits.
  • Fry the biscuits for about two minutes on the first side. Then turn them over. The 2nd side will turn golden brown quicker, so watch them closely. They cook in no time. Remove from heat and serve.

Notes

Tips For Success
  • Not all skillets are created equal. Heavier skillets such as a cast iron, will cook any food faster, due to the superior heat distribution. These biscuits cook quickly. Don't walk away from the stove, watch them carefully so they don't burn. Use a spatula to lift the biscuits to peek underneath. Once cooked, remove them to a paper towel.
  • Add a little more butter to the pan if needed once they're turned to cook on the 2nd side.
If using a can of thinner biscuits, adjust cooking time for a shorter fry time.
