Pillsbury dough biscuits are typically baked in the oven, but if you don't have access to an oven or prefer to cook them on the stovetop, you can try using a skillet or pan. Here's a method for cooking Pillsbury dough biscuits on top of the stove:
Ingredients:
- Pillsbury dough biscuits (any variety)
Instructions:
Heat the skillet: Place a skillet or pan on the stovetop and turn the heat to medium-low. Allow the skillet to heat up for a few minutes.
Grease the skillet: Lightly grease the skillet with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent the biscuits from sticking.
Arrange the biscuits: Open the package of Pillsbury dough biscuits and separate them. Place the biscuits on the greased skillet, leaving some space between them as they will expand while cooking.
Cover the skillet: Place a lid or cover on top of the skillet to create an enclosed cooking environment. This helps the biscuits cook evenly and helps retain heat.
Cook on low heat: Cook the biscuits on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the bottom side is golden brown. Cooking times may vary, so keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Flip the biscuits: Once the bottom side is cooked, carefully flip the biscuits using a spatula. Be gentle to avoid squishing them.
Cook the other side: Cook the flipped side of the biscuits for another 5-7 minutes, or until it turns golden brown. Again, monitor the heat and adjust if necessary.
Check for doneness: To ensure the biscuits are fully cooked, you can insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of one biscuit. If it comes out clean without any doughy residue, the biscuits are ready.
Remove from heat and serve: Once the biscuits are cooked through and have a golden brown color on both sides, remove them from the skillet and place them on a plate or serving dish. Serve them while they're still warm and enjoy!
Note: Cooking Pillsbury dough biscuits on the stovetop may result in a slightly different texture compared to baking them in the oven. They may not have the same level of rise or fluffiness, but they will still be delicious. Adjust the cooking time and heat as needed based on your stovetop and the size/thickness of the biscuits.
Remember to exercise caution while cooking on the stovetop and use oven mitts or heat-resistant gloves when handling the skillet and biscuits, as they can become hot.
