Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk chilled (see note)
  • 8 Tablespoons butter melted and slightly cooled, plus more for brushing on top if desired, salted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the melted butter into the cold buttermilk with a fork. It will create little chunks of butter and look sort of slushy, but that's what you want.
  4. Mix the buttermilk and butter into the flour with a fork or spatula until everything is moistened, then use a large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup measuring cup to drop mounds of biscuit dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown on top. You can brush the tops of the biscuits with additional melted butter right when they come out of the oven, if you like.

Notes

  • Chilled buttermilk: It's important that your buttermilk is chilled so that it creates a sort of slush when the hot butter is added. The temperature differences create the small chunks of butter that fill these biscuits with layers.
