Dry Ingredients

Method

Biscuit Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Buttermilk

    Pour in the buttermilk and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Shape the Dough

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Fold it over onto itself a few times to create layers.

  6. 6

    Cut Biscuits

    Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits from the dough. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each biscuit.

  7. 7

    Bake

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

  8. 8

    Serve Warm

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm with butter or jam.
