Fluffy Southern Buttermilk Biscuits: The Incredible Ultimate Recipe for 10


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 5 minute

Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon baking soda
– 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
– 1 cup buttermilk, cold
– Optional: 1 tablespoon sugar (for a touch of sweetness)


Instructions

Follow these steps to create delicious Fluffy Southern Buttermilk Biscuits:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
3. Add Butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Stir in Buttermilk: Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the cold buttermilk. Stir with a spatula until just combined.
5. Knead Gently: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead the dough gently 5-6 times, just until it comes together. Avoid over-kneading.
6. Roll Out Dough: Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to about ¾-inch thickness.
7. Cut Biscuits: Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits, pressing straight down without twisting.
8. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the cut biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, close together for soft sides.
9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
10. Brush with Butter: Remove from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter for extra flavor.
