Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need
- Medium bowl
- Microwave-safe bowl
- 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups of buttermilk
- 1 stick of butter
- 4 teaspoons of baking yeast
- 4 teaspoons of sugar
- 2 teaspoons of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, mix all the dry ingredients.
- Add the buttermilk and mix until you have a moist dough.
- Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and pour it into an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish. Ensure your pan is not too small or shallow to prevent butter from dripping during baking.
- Place the batter on top of the melted butter and use a spatula to spread it evenly in the pan until it touches the sides.
- Cut the uncooked dough into 9 equal squares; it should be swimming in butter at this point.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
- Serve these delightful biscuits for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are the perfect complement to any meal, especially with a dollop of raspberry jam!
Tips for Success
- Ensure your baking dish is deep enough to keep the butter from spilling over.
- Don’t overmix the dough; it should be just combined to keep the biscuits tender.
Additional Tips and Variations
For a savory twist, consider adding a bit of shredded cheese or herbs to the dough. Try serving them with honey butter for an extra indulgent treat.
