Indulge in the fluffiest, most delectable Southern biscuits that make the perfect complement to any lunch! Quick, easy, and oh-so-satisfying.
Time
Prep Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 20 mins Total Time: 30 mins
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (Sifted for lightness)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder (Ensure it's fresh for best lift)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (Adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (Chilled and cubed)
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk (Room temperature for better absorption)
Instructions
    Mixing the Dry Ingredients
  1. Prep the Mixture

    In your trusty KitchenAid stand mixer, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Use the paddle attachment to mix them until evenly blended.

    2. Incorporating the Butter
  2. Add the Butter

    Now, add in your chilled butter cubes. Beat on a low setting until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs – about the size of peas!

    3. Mixing in the Buttermilk
  3. Combine Wet and Dry

    Slowly pour in the buttermilk, mixing gently. Mix until just combined; don't overwork the dough, or it'll be tough – we’re aiming for fluffiness!

    4. Baking the Biscuits
  4. Shape and Bake

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat it down lightly. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out your biscuits. Place them on a baking sheet and bake in a 450°F oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Note

These biscuits can be served warm with butter, honey, or jam. Perfect for a quick lunch or even as a side with soup! Georgia Ann’s Tip: For an even richer flavor, try substituting half the buttermilk with sour cream. It'll add a delightful tang!
