Biscuit lovers love this freezer friendly bulk biscuit recipe. These biscuits are great for snacks and to have on hand when guests pop over. And with only four ingredients, they are cheap and super easy to make.
With this Bulk Biscuit Recipes, you could easily make over 100 biscuits in one batch, though that does depend on the size of the biscuits. When the kids were younger, I could make smaller biscuits, now that they are getting bigger, I tend to make larger biscuits more often, sometimes only getting 60+ biscuits.
Freezing the Mixture
I love that this mixture can be frozen. To freeze, roll the dough into a log, wrap with baking paper and then with cling wrap and pop it into the freezer. This mixture will keep for up to three months in the freezer. The mixture could also be rolled into small balls, placed on a lined baking tray to freeze and then popped into freezer bags once frozen. To bake, just cut the roll into slices or place the balls onto lined baking trays and bake in a pre-heated oven for about 10 minutes, until golden.
You could also bake the biscuits and once cooled, add to a freezer bag and freeze.
