GREAT biscuit recipe. This is a copycat for Popeye's buttermilk biscuits. Please don't use salted butter in this recipe (or, indeed, in any of your baking).
29 min 5 min prep
2 cups multi purposed flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1.5 teaspoon salt
1.5 teaspoon baking powder
0.5 teaspoon baking soda
0.5 cup of unsalted butter, cold
0.5 cup buttermilk*
0.25 cup milk
Melted butter, to brush on top
*Substitutions: 1 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice + low-fat or fat-free milk to make 1 cup & let stand for 10 minutes = 1 cup low fat or fat-free buttermilk
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Mix together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl.
Slice cold butter into cubes and use a pastry knife or potato masher to cut butter into dry mixture until no large chunks of butter remain.
Add buttermilk and milk and stir with a spoon until dough forms.
Roll out to 1/2-inch thick on a floured surface.
Cut biscuits with a 3-inch biscuit cutter and arrange on a lightly-greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 22 to 24 minutes or until tops begin to turn light brown.
Remove biscuits from the oven and cool for a couple of minutes, then brush each biscuit top with melted butter.
