These electric skillet biscuits are so simple, you will be tempted to make them every night! And why not? We all deserve to bite into a little extra comfort with our suppers.
If you tend to shy away from the mess and hassle of baking in your kitchen, this recipe has you covered. Actually, I would rather call this a "food hack" rather than a recipe.
All you need is a can of pre-made dough and some ingredients you already have in your pantry and fridge.
Your final result will be these fluffy and airy, golden-brown biscuits, surprisingly made in your electric frying pan. You can also make English muffins from scratch in your electric skillet!
I love to listen for the hiss of the hot oil as the dough makes contact and slightly crisps up on the outside. Meanwhile, the inside bakes to give you a melt-in-your-mouth tenderness, exploding with warmth. Not to mention the butter and honey, giving just a hint of sweetness, melting on the surface of these freshly fried biscuits.
These biscuits make it so easy to add a delightful warmth to any meal. Spend less than thirty minutes with your electric skillet and you are on your way.

🥖 Ingredients
- biscuit dough - Choose pre-made/pre-cut like canned, Pillsbury biscuit dough. Using premade biscuit dough means no flour to clean off of your counters and much fewer dishes to do too. This really is the most delicious win-win situation when it comes to comfort food.
- honey - This is for an optional, slightly sweet, honey butter that you can spread on the biscuits. For a savory addition, biscuits taste even better with sawmill gravy. For a healthier option, try pumpkin butter.

📝 How to Make Electric Skillet Biscuits
- Heat electric skillet to 400ºF. Add the oil and let it heat up.
- Drop the dough discs into the oil (carefully and away from you so that the oil doesn't splash up). Fry them for 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown on both sides. Transfer them to a baking rack with paper towels underneath to catch any oil that drips.
- In a small bowl, mix the butter and honey together until smooth.
- Serve the biscuits with the honey butter.
