Buttermilk Biscuits :
Ingredients
โ 2 cups all-purpose flour
โ 1 tablespoon baking powder
โ 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
โ 1/2 teaspoon salt
โ 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
โ 3/4 cup buttermilk
Preparation
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425ยฐF (220ยฐC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Cut in Butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add Buttermilk: Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Shape Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently pat it out to about 1-inch thickness. Use a round cutter to cut out biscuits, re-rolling the dough as necessary.
6. Bake: Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
7. Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuits to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread!
