Introduction
Biscuits are a classic breakfast staple that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you prefer them plain or topped with your favorite toppings, they're always a crowd-pleaser. This buttered biscuit recipe is a simple yet delicious way to start your day off on the right foot.Ingredients
To make these buttered biscuits, you'll need the following ingredients:- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. 2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. 3. Add the chilled butter cubes to the bowl and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. 4. Pour in the milk and stir until a dough forms. 5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for a minute or two until it comes together into a smooth ball. 6. Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness and use a biscuit cutter to cut out circles of dough. 7. Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a bit of space between each one. 8. Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they're golden brown on top. 9. While the biscuits are baking, melt the 1/4 cup of butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave. 10. Once the biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and brush the melted butter generously over the tops of each one. 11. Serve the biscuits warm with your favorite toppings.Nutrition
