Butter buttermilk biscuits are the epitome of comfort food—flaky, tender, and perfectly buttery. Made with tangy buttermilk and rich butter, these biscuits rise beautifully to create soft layers inside with a golden, slightly crisp exterior. Whether served warm with a pat of butter, a drizzle of honey, or alongside your favorite savory dishes, these biscuits are a versatile addition to any meal. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner, they bring a homemade warmth that’s hard to resist.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup buttermilk, chilled
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Make a well in the center and pour in the chilled buttermilk. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
- Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Fold the dough over itself a couple of times to create layers, then pat it down again to 1-inch thick.
- Cut out biscuits using a floured biscuit cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top. Serve warm with butter or your favorite jam.
