Ingredients

  • - 2 cups low-protein, soft winter wheat flour (White Lily preferred)
  • - 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
  • - 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • - 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • - 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • - 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • - 2 tablespoons melted salted butter (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. 11. Chill all ingredients and equipment before starting. Place mixing bowl and butter in freezer for 15 minutes.
  2. 22. Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a large mixing bowl. Work quickly to keep ingredients cold.
  3. 33. Cut cold butter into flour mixture using pastry cutter or fingertips. Create pea-sized crumbs, maintaining small butter chunks for flakiness.
  4. 44. Create a well in center of mixture. Pour cold buttermilk into well. Fold gently with wooden spoon until just combined - do not overmix.
  5. 55. Transfer dough onto lightly floured surface. Gently pat into 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold dough over itself 3-4 times to create layers.
  6. 66. Cut biscuits using 2.5-inch round cutter. Press straight down without twisting to ensure proper rising.
  7. 77. Arrange biscuits on parchment-lined baking sheet, edges touching. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to re-chill butter.
  8. 88. Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake biscuits 12-14 minutes until tops are golden brown.
  9. 99. Immediately brush with melted salted butter after removing from oven.
