Good old-fashioned southern biscuits made with self-rising flour, buttermilk, and butter- just like your granny used to make (if you're from the South!).
Servings: 9 biscuits
Calories: 180kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups self-rising flour plus additional 1/4 cup for dusting the work surface
- 6 Tablespoons cold butter
- 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. You can line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use an ungreased baking sheet.
- Place approximately 1 cup of flour in food processor. Cut butter into pieces and add to flour. Pulse until butter is in pea-sized pieces. Combine mixture with additional 1 ½ cup of flour.
- Add buttermilk and mix with a spoon. Mixture will be "sticky."
- Sprinkle a work surface with flour, then place your dough on it. Form the flour mixture into a cohesive ball, then pat it into a circle or rectangle about an inch thick. There’s no need to pull out your rolling pin to roll the dough like it’s a pie crust.
- Cut with biscuit cutter (or drinking end of cup). Place biscuits on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 11-12 minutes or until golden brown.
