    These are my mom's biscuits, she's been making them from before I was born. They are super easy to make, there's no butter in them, but they still come out light and flaky and delicious. These fantastic biscuits are perfect for my chicken and biscuit recipe.

    You can try this recipe with my country style white gravy. It is super easy to make and tastes fenomenal.

      Shouldn't we cut them out first THEN let them rise?

      I so want to make this recipe, but have a few questions! First, how thick do we roll it out? Does it need to be covered during the 30 minutes rest time? Also, should it rise during that time or stay flat? Thank you!

      I consider myself a great cook, but I'm no baker! This recipe looks easy enough but I couldn't find any bran today at the market. Can I skip it?
