Biscuit Ingredients

Method

Biscuit Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that your biscuits will bake evenly.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Buttermilk

    Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir gently with a fork until just combined; do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it 2-3 times. Pat the dough to about 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out the biscuits.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
