Scale

For the Biscuits:

  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¾ cup buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Melt Butter: Place the butter in a cast-iron skillet or an 8×8-inch baking dish and melt it in the preheated oven, ensuring it doesn’t burn.
  3. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the buttermilk to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour Batter Over Melted Butter: Once the butter has melted, remove the skillet from the oven and pour the biscuit batter over the hot melted butter.
  6. Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and set in the center.
  7. Rest and Serve: Let the biscuits rest in the pan for about 15 minutes to absorb the butter before cutting and serving.
