Making buttermilk biscuits is now a breeze! With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up fluffy, golden biscuits that are perfect for dipping. They're versatile enough to pair with any Proper Good soup, but we especially love dunking them in our Chicken Noodle Soup for the ultimate comfort meal. Give it a try!
Prep Time: 9 Minutes
Cook Time: 25 Minutes
Serves: 9 biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 4 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups cold buttermilk
Method
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and place a rack in the middle.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Pour into an 8x8-inch baking dish, swirling to coat the sides.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and baking soda.
- Add buttermilk and stir with a rubber spatula until a sticky dough forms and no dry flour remains.
- Transfer dough into the baking pan, using damp hands to press evenly until it touches all sides. Cut the dough in a 3x3 grid to make 9 squares (they’ll be touching).
- Bake for 25-27 minutes, until golden-brown and puffed. Immediately re-cut along scores to separate. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
We love having these delicious flaky squares as a side with our Chicken Noodle Soup! Dip in, or break into small pieces and add on top!
