How to Make Alabama Biscuit Muffins

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Gradually add 1 cup buttermilk, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill the prepared muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
