Ingredients
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 60 g butter Unsalted, cold and diced
- 150 ml buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (200°C fan) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the cold, diced butter to the dry ingredients and rub it in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Pour in the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
- Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 2cm and use a round cutter to cut out biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on the prepared baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
