FAQ

Can I use cooking oil instead of butter?

You can certainly use neutral oils like olive oil, grapeseed oil, or corn oil instead of butter.

Why do you brush egg wash on the surface of the dough? AI-generated

It is brushed on to give the surface an appetizing, golden-brown color when baked in the oven.

How can I enjoy the finished biscuits more deliciously?

They pair wonderfully when spread with sweet jam to your taste and served with milk or coffee.
