Soon, Joanna Gaines’ "perfect" biscuits will be available to buy online, according to reports.
The Magnolia co-founder and lifestyle guru revealed the recipe for her biscuits in January on her cooking show "Magnolia Table." But if cooking isn’t your thing, Magnolia will be selling frozen biscuit dough starting April 1, Travel and Leisure reported Wednesday.
According to the website, fans can buy the frozen dough from the Magnolia website and it will be shipped from the Gaines’ restaurant, Magnolia Table.
Travel and Leisure reported that a dozen frozen biscuits cost $25, plus another $15 for shipping.

I looked at Magnolia current items for sale. They’ve got Zucchini bread! A man I used to work with would bring his wife’s zucchini bread to work. I LOVED this bread! He wouldn’t give me the recipe, so I’ll try this one. :)
OMG LOL,LOL,LOL you are funny!!
$2.00 a biscuit plus shipping? Mine cost about .20 each and I’m sure they’re better.

I had these in Waco at the Magnolia farms.They are DENSE and seem more like hard tack than a biscuit. Taste was ok.
I’ve made lasagna with homemade noodles and sauce. I’d kill for a chunk of that now. Lots of work, but worth it, ain’t up for that kind of work no more. Whine, ah well, it was mom’s favorite.
She’ll sell out and make millions.
The perfect biscuit dough is no secret, and it’s been on the back of the White Lily bag for years.
240 g White Lily All-Purpose Four
1 TBS Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
4 TBS Shortning
2 TBS Unsalted Butter
3/4 Cup Buttermilk
Mix dry ingredients, cut in fat, add buttermilk and mix gently. Pat out dough gently on surface. Cut biscuits. Put in cast iron skillet. MOST IMPORTANT: Place in fridge for one hour to relax dough for fluffiness. Bake at 450 F for 12 minutes until just kissed with brown — biscuits should be pale.
Enjoy with Neese’s sausage gravy or butter and honey!
Never had any better since. Same goes for her iced tea, which she used to make and put on the windowsill for a few hours in a big glass jar. There there was her fried okra, fried chicken, fried catfish...
Something about southern cooking that just can't be duplicated north of the Mason/Dixon line.
I’m holding out for a perfect Biscuitville copycat recipe to appear.
I know. I feel your gustatory pain. 🥺
Or with Chocolate Gravy!! MMMMMM
“To me, baking is the most difficult of the culinary arts, almost more like chemistry, but dude! it’s biscuits! come on!”
I agree with both of your points.
Purchased a GOOD bread machine several years ago and we make PERFECT bread now.
I wasn’t going to pay $7.99 for a loaf of ‘artisanal’ bread locally...
It’s not rocket science.....it’s called Bisquick.
With cheese of course.
My wife and I were reflecting the other day on the amount of cooking folks had to do in the not-so-distant past. Wife grew up on a farm in the Carolinas, with her parents, along with six brothers and sisters. The girls and their mom rose before dawn to cook breakfast for the family, plus a couple of farm hands. If it was big event, like the tobacco harvest or a hog killing, the number of people at the table would be even greater.
After breakfast, the younger kids went to school, while the older ones worked in the fields. At noon, a smaller meal, but you still had 4-7 people at the table. Then, after a brief break, more farm work, followed by supper, clean-up and getting ready for the next day. That’s a lot of food, and it was prepared and served six or seven days a week.
My late mother-in-law would laugh at the idea of paying $4 for a frozen biscuit, when she cranked out a sheet each morning, faster and far better than anything Joanna Gaines’ bakery could come up with.
We use Mary B’s. They taste pretty good.
Make fun of her all you want but she and her husband started from very humble beginnings and have built an empire. Not sure why people on this site would denigrate them for it.
I did enjoy their show early on. It was different but they did need a better home inspector before allowing their “clients” to purchase the fixer uppers.
But, alas, they jumped the shark when they bought the silos and went commercial.
The other group was the Black Dog Salvage guys. A lot of cool stuff, no doubt. But I had a chance to stop into their store in Roanoke a couple of years ago. Outrageous prices on everything. I guess some people are willing to pay extra for the celebrity factor. Not me....
By any chance is this Joanna responsible for gray everything? I don’t know who is. But my dear Lord every house in the market has all the rooms opened up and every remaining wall painted gray.
I can’t see these biscuit sales lasting too long.
Lastly, a teaspoon or so if white vinegar in whole milk or half and half makes a terrific buttermilk substitute. If you can’t find lard use butter.
But - get some fatty pork chops or roast and render your own clean lard. Nothing better.
