Prep Time: 15 mins | Cook Time: 15 mins | Total Time: 30 mins | Servings: 10
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
- Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir just until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times.
- Pat the dough out into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out as many biscuits as you can and place them on a baking sheet.
- Gather the scraps and pat them out again, cutting out additional biscuits until all the dough has been used.
- Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Serve warm.
