Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup salted butter (1 stick) Melted
  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk Possibly up to 2 cups
Dry Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Method
 

Preheat and Prepare
  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Coat an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
Melt the Butter
  1. Melt the stick of salted butter in a microwave-safe bowl for about 45 seconds to a minute. Pour it into the prepared baking dish.
Mix Dry Ingredients
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the Buttermilk
  1. Pour 1 3/4 cups of cold buttermilk into the dry mixture and stir until a thick, sticky batter forms.
Assemble the Biscuits
  1. Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Spray your hands with nonstick spray and gently spread the dough evenly.
Cut and Bake
  1. Cut the dough into 9 squares before baking. Bake for 25-30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.
Check for Doneness
  1. Biscuits are done when they are golden brown on top, spring back when pressed, and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

Use real buttermilk for the best results, ensure the oven is preheated to the specified temperature, and consider variations with cheese, herbs, or spices.
