Flaky Biscuits
Method
Flaky Biscuits Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that the biscuits bake properly and become flaky.
- 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
Cut in 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.
- 4
Add Buttermilk
Pour in the buttermilk and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix the dough.
- 5
Shape the Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough over itself a few times to create layers, then cut out biscuits using a round cutter.

Bake the Biscuits
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are touching each other. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
