Method

Preparation of Biscuits

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). This ensures that the biscuits bake evenly and rise nicely.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Buttermilk

    Pour in the buttermilk and stir gently with a fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

  5. 5

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Gently pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  6. 6

    Bake the Biscuits

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Preparation of Honey Butter

  1. 7

    Mix Honey Butter

    In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of softened unsalted butter with 1/4 cup of honey. Mix until smooth and well combined.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Once the biscuits are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with the honey butter spread on top.
