These fluffy buttermilk biscuits are a delightful addition to any meal, perfect for breakfast or as a side dish.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Preheating ensures the biscuits bake evenly and rise properly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the leavening agent.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Using cold butter helps create flaky layers in the biscuits.
Gradually add the buttermilk to the mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Add the buttermilk slowly to avoid overhydrating the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8-10 times.
Handle the dough gently to keep the biscuits tender.
Roll the dough to a thickness of about 3/4 inch and cut out biscuits using a floured biscuit cutter.
Press straight down with the cutter to help the biscuits rise evenly.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Spacing the biscuits allows for even baking and browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Keep an eye on the biscuits in the last few minutes to prevent overbaking.
Serve the biscuits warm with your favorite toppings or sides.
Enjoy the biscuits fresh for the best flavor and texture.
