How to Store or Freeze Your Biscuits
- Allow the biscuits to cool completely before storing. This prevents condensation, which can make them soggy.
- For short-term storage, place the biscuits in an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag. Store at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- To extend freshness, refrigerate the biscuits. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place them in an airtight container. They will keep for up to a week.
- For freezing, wrap each biscuit tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Place the wrapped biscuits in a freezer-safe bag or container. Label with the date and freeze for up to 3 months.
- When ready to enjoy, thaw frozen biscuits at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight.
- To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil to prevent them from drying out. Heat for 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
- For a quicker option, microwave individual biscuits on a microwave-safe plate for 20-30 seconds, checking for desired warmth.
- To maintain the biscuits' flaky texture, avoid reheating them multiple times. Reheat only the amount you plan to consume immediately.
How to Reheat Leftovers
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover them with aluminum foil to prevent them from drying out. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until they are warmed through and slightly crispy on the outside.
For a quicker method, use a microwave. Place the biscuits on a microwave-safe plate. Cover them with a damp paper towel to retain moisture. Microwave on medium power for 20-30 seconds. Check if they are warm enough; if not, continue in 10-second intervals.
If you have an air fryer, preheat it to 320°F (160°C). Place the biscuits in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Heat them for 3-5 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure they don't overcook.
For a stovetop method, heat a non-stick skillet over low heat. Place the biscuits in the skillet and cover with a lid. Heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are warmed through and slightly crispy.
To add a touch of moisture and flavor, brush the biscuits with a little melted butter before reheating using any of the above methods. This will help keep them soft and add a delicious buttery taste.
