Servings 12 biscuits
Prep Time 12 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  •  In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Using your fingers or a pastry blender, cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Pour the buttermilk into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough will be sticky.
  • Shape biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat it into a 1-inch thick circle. Use a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
  • Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve warm with butter and honey or your favourite jam.
