Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). This will ensure the biscuits bake evenly and rise properly.
- 2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until well combined.

Add Wet Ingredients
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in 3 cups of buttermilk and 0.5 cups of melted unsalted butter. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are some lumps.
Baking
- 4
Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Gently knead it 2-3 times until it holds together. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the Biscuits
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
