Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agents.
Cut in the Butter
Add the cold unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Mixing
Add Buttermilk
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined; do not overmix.
Shaping
Turn Dough onto a Surface
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
Cut Biscuits
Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits from the dough. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they are close but not touching.
Baking
Bake the Biscuits
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Cool and Serve
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter or jam.
