For the flakiest biscuits, ensure your butter and buttermilk are very cold. Don't overmix the dough – this will result in tough biscuits. Mix until just combined. Folding the dough several times creates layers, resulting in a flaky texture. If you don't have a biscuit cutter, you can use a knife to cut the dough into squares or triangles. Serve these biscuits fresh from the air fryer for the best taste and texture.
