What You’ll Need:
Make sure you have all the following ingredients on hand before getting started:
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Unsalted Butter | ½ cup |
| All-Purpose Flour | 2 ½ cups |
| Baking Powder | 4 teaspoons |
| Granulated Sugar | 4 teaspoons |
| Salt | 1 teaspoon |
| Buttermilk | 1 ¾ cups |
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven
Start by setting your oven to 450°F (230°C) so it’s ready to go. - Melt the Butter
Add the unsalted butter to an 8-inch square glass or ceramic baking dish. Microwave for one minute, then stir. Continue heating in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until the butter is fully melted. - Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a separate mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. - Add the Buttermilk
Gradually mix the buttermilk into the dry ingredients until everything is just combined—don’t overmix. - Assemble the Biscuits
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Spread it out evenly, then use a bench scraper or knife to divide the dough into nine squares. - Bake to Perfection
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops of the biscuits turn golden brown.
