Chapter 9: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use all-purpose flour instead of self-rising?
A: You’d need to add 1.5 teaspoons baking powder and 0.5 teaspoon salt per cup of flour.
Q: Can I freeze the raw dough?
A: Yes! Freeze cut biscuits on a tray, then transfer to freezer bag. Bake frozen adding a few minutes.
