Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe|Fluffy, Golden, and Begging for a Drizzle of Honey
Fluffy, tender buttermilk biscuits are the epitome of comfort food. With their flaky layers and soft, buttery texture, they are perfect for breakfast, a side to dinner, or just a snack with a drizzle of honey. Here’s how you can make these irresistible biscuits at home.
➡ Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
½ tsp baking soda
½ cup cold unsalted butter (cut into small cubes)
1 cup buttermilk (cold)
➡ Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the cold butter cubes into the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Pour in the cold buttermilk and stir gently with a fork until the dough begins to come together.
5. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently fold it over a few times to create layers. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
6. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle and use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits.
7. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, ensuring they are close together for soft sides.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
9. Serve warm with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey.
