Breakfast Biscuit

Breakfast Biscuit also known as American biscuits are small, fluffy quick breads, leavened with baking powder or buttermilk and served with butter and jam or gravy. They are close to what the British would call scones. … To most of the rest of the English-speaking world, a biscuit is what Americans would refer to as either a cookie or a cracker.
