FAQs
1. Can I use regular milk instead of buttermilk?
Yes, you can use regular milk, but the biscuits may not be as tender. You can also add a splash of vinegar to regular milk to make a substitute for buttermilk.
2. Can I freeze the biscuits?
Yes, you can freeze unbaked biscuits. Shape the biscuits and place them on a baking sheet to freeze before transferring them to a freezer-safe bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
3. Can I replace the stuffing mix with bread crumbs?
Yes, you can use bread crumbs, but you’ll need to season them to get a similar flavor to stuffing mix.
