Angel Biscuits

"Light and airy, angel biscuits are small, delicate, and perfectly tender! Leavened with baking powder, baking soda, and yeast, these special biscuits are a delicious cross between traditional Southern buttermilk biscuits and soft yeast-raised dinner rolls. There’s a little country market near our house that sells trays of homemade angel biscuits, often purchased alongside the shop’s country ham, both of which are used to assemble traditional ham biscuits. Definitely a staple here in Virginia! I’ve tested a handful of different angel biscuit recipes over the years in an attempt to recreate the Yoder’s version in my own kitchen, and I’m happy to report that I’ve finally landed on a winner. In fact, I think these are even better!"
