"Using your microwave to reheat biscuits essentially zaps their moisture and dries them out, making them chewy, stale, or rubbery. You may have more success with this method if you spritz the biscuits with a few drops of water first. Alternately, heat them alongside a small bowl of water, which creates steam that helps keep them soft as they warm through."
"To properly heat leftover canned biscuits, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and wrap them in aluminum foil. Place them on a baking sheet, and remove the foil after about 6 minutes. At this stage, you can enhance their flavor by brushing the tops with melted butter (or even a chive-packed compound butter, if you're feeling fancy), or a mixture of maple syrup, butter, and cinnamon. Return them to the oven once more for a few minutes - just until they're warmed through."
Store-bought biscuits can approach homemade quality and allow control over batch size, but leftovers require proper reheating and storage. Microwaving tends to remove moisture and can make biscuits chewy, stale, or rubbery; spritzing with water or heating near a bowl of water can help by creating steam. The oven produces the best results: preheat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, wrap biscuits in foil, bake on a sheet, remove foil after about six minutes, brush with melted butter or a sweet-spiced mixture, then return briefly until warmed through. Minimize air and moisture exposure when storing to prevent sogginess, mold, or poor texture.
