How to Make Ultimate Cloud Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk and 1 large egg.
  5. Gently add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix!
  6. Lightly flour a clean surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 turns only.
  7. Roll the dough to about 1-inch thickness. Use a 2-inch round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits.
  8. Place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Serve warm with butter, jam, honey, or your favorite topping. Enjoy!
