★Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon baking soda
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into thin slices
¾ cup cold buttermilk
2 tablespoons buttermilk (for brushing)
★Directions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
Cut butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center and pour in ¾ cup buttermilk. Stir until just combined.
Turn dough onto a floured surface, pat into a rectangle, fold in thirds, and turn. Repeat this folding and pressing process three times.
Roll dough to ½-inch thickness, and cut out 12 biscuits with a 2½-inch round cutter.
Transfer biscuits to the baking sheet, press an indent on each with your thumb, and brush tops with buttermilk.
Bake for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
Enjoy!
