Buttermilk Biscuits 🍪:
Ingredients 🍪
– 2 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
– 1 tablespoon baking powder 🌿
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 🌿
– 1/2 teaspoon salt 🧂
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed 🧈
– 3/4 cup buttermilk 🥛
Preparation 🍳
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). 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! 😋🍽️
