Four tender buttermilk biscuits baked right in a pool of melted butter until crisp and golden.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
Equipment
- mixing bowl
- whisk
- baking sheet
Directions
- Heat the oven to 450°F. In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
- Stir in the buttermilk just until combined. The dough will be wet and sticky.
- Pour all of the melted butter into a 5-inch square baking dish. Spoon the dough on top of the butter (don’t stir it in) and gently spread it to fill the dish.
- Cut the dough into 4 squares with a knife. Set the dish on a rimmed baking sheet in case the butter bubbles over.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until deep golden and the butter is bubbling at the edges. Let it stand in the dish for 10 minutes before pulling the biscuits apart.
