: to put or keep (a person or animal) in an enclosed area : to prevent (someone or something) from moving beyond a particular area â usually used as (be) penned in/up. 1  Several dogs were penned up [=penned] behind the house. 2  The men were penned up [=trapped] on the ship for months.
Pssstâ¦ Hereâs another great thing about freezing biscuits: bake only as many as you need. Looking for 3 or 4 biscuits for your empty-nester dinner? Youâve got âem. Bake the biscuits for 8 minutes in a preheated 475Â°F oven. Theyâll look half-baked; thatâs OK.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes- the biscuits will be a beautiful light golden brown on top and bottom. Do not overbake. Note: The key to real biscuits is not in the ingredients, but in the handling of the dough. The dough must be handled as little as possible or you will have tough biscuits.
