2 Ways to Bake Biscuits for Breakfast in The Italian Way!

Biscuits essentially are just a variety of bread. They are made by combining flour, shortening, milk, water, and leavening. Generally, the dough made with these items is just rolled and then cut into small circular shapes. Originally biscuit was just a flat cake that was just thrown back into the oven after being removed from the tin – thus named biscuit, ‘bis’ meaning twice and ‘cuit’ meaning cooked – in the French language. It was also once known as ‘stone bread.’ 

Mostly. In Italy, about 80% of the biscuits are had during the first meal of the day – breakfast. However, in other parts of Europe, they are also considered as a snack for random snacking needs throughout the day. As a true Italian food fan, let’s try to recreate some of the ways that biscuits can be used as a breakfast. You could try making these recipes with one of the highest quality biscuits found on authentic Italian food stores online – ‘pan di Stelle biscuits’ or otherwise known as ‘Mulino Bianco Pan di Stelle cookies.’  Click reference for more ideas.
