How to Make Sharon's Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar (optional, for a sweeter biscuit).
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the buttermilk and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times. Pat or roll the dough to about 1 inch thickness.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out biscuits. Reroll scraps.
- Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with butter and your favorite accompaniments, such as sausage gravy!
