Ingredients

12 servings

  • 4 cups biscuit flour, or all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks, cubed, very cold
  • 1 cup buttermilk, plus 2 tablespoons
  • butter, melted, for brushing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Using your hands or a pastry cutter, incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients, leaving large chunks.
  • Fold in the buttermilk until a thick dough forms.
  • Lightly flour a clean surface and dump the dough onto it. Bring the dough together until it comes together in one large piece.
  • Roll out with a rolling pin to about 1 ½-2 inches (4-5 cm) thick. Using a biscuit cutter or small glass, cut out 2-3-inch (5-7 cm) rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet. It’s okay if the biscuits are touching.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Brush the biscuits with melted butter.
  • Serve as desired.
  • Enjoy!
