Description

I got this recipe from a combination of videos and I just took parts and put them together. Best homemade biscuits I have ever tasted, even if I do say so myself.

Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • ¼ cup melted butter, or as needed, divided
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. 2. Divide 1/2 cup butter into 12 to 16 small chunks.
  3. 3. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Mix in butter chunks using a pastry blender. Make a well in the middle of the mixture; pour in buttermilk. Mix until dough comes together.
  4. 4. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until just formed together. Cut discs out of dough using a cookie cutter or a cup. Butter both sides of cut biscuit dough with 1/2 of the melted butter. Place biscuits onto a baking sheet.
  5. 5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with remaining melted butter while hot. Serve.
