How to Make Biscuits Baking Powder Or Buttermilk

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix!
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it to about 1-inch thickness.
  7. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out biscuits. Reroll scraps.
  8. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with butter, jam, or your favorite savory topping!
