  BAKING TIPS Bake for 17 to 20 minutes depending on the size of your biscuits and your oven. Extra large biscuits may take 25 to 30 minutes. Watch them carefully the first time you make them and see what temp is perfect for your oven. They just start to brown in my oven at 15 minutes. Do not overcook!
