Ingredients:
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 cup buttermilk, cold
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the cold buttermilk. Stir the mixture until it just comes together and forms a shaggy dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead the dough a few times until it becomes cohesive, being careful not to overwork it.
Roll out the dough to a ¾-inch thickness. Use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits from the dough. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a small gap between each biscuit.
Gather the remaining dough scraps and gently reroll them to cut out more biscuits. Repeat until all the dough is used.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
Serve the buttermilk biscuits warm with butter, jam, honey, or your favorite breakfast accompaniments.
Tips:
Make sure to use cold butter and buttermilk as this helps create flaky layers in the biscuits.
Handle the dough as little as possible to prevent the biscuits from becoming tough.
If you don’t have a biscuit cutter, you can use a round cookie cutter or simply shape the dough into rounds by hand.
These homemade buttermilk biscuits are a true delight and will surely become a favorite in your household. Whether enjoyed on their own or as part of a meal, their buttery goodness will have everyone asking for seconds. So, roll up your sleeves, grab your ingredients, and get ready to savor the joy of freshly baked buttermilk biscuits.
