Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 c. All-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 tsp Baking pwdr
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1 dsh Salt
- 1 Tbsp. Sugar
- 1/2 c. Butter
- 3/4 c. Buttermilk Melted butter, optional All-purpose flour, optional
Directions
- Mix flour, baking pwdr, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a mixing bowl.
- Cut in very cool butter with pastry blender till mix resembles coarse crumbs. Add in buttermilk. With a knife fold in the buttermilk till the dough forms into a ball. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead a few times to make a soft dough. Do not over knead or possibly the biscuits will be hard and dry. Roll or possibly press the dough out. Should be about1/2" to 3/4" thick.
- Cut out with a biscuit cutter, but do not twist the cutter while cutting, as it will make the biscuits tough. Place close together on an ungreased baking sheet. If desired crispy tops, brush the tops with a little melted butter. Bake at 400 degrees till golden brown about 10-15 min, depending on how thick they were cut. When the biscuits come out of the oven dust with flour, if desired.
