Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup salted butter ((1 stick))
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk ((you may need up to two cups))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 450F degrees. Spray a glass or ceramic 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (I like the kind with flour in it).
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt stick of butter in the microwave. Pour melted butter into prepared baking dish.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Pour in the buttermilk. Stir until a sticky batter forms. If batter still seems too dry add a tad bit more buttermilk until the batter is thick and sticky.
  • Pour biscuit dough into baking dish (right on top of the melted butter.) Some of the butter will run over the top of the dough. Tip: I will spray my hand with some nonstick spray to help spread the dough out evenly in the pan.
  • Cut the dough into 9 squares (as best you can). This will help with cutting later when the biscuits are baked.
  • Bake (on the middle oven rack) for about 25-30 minutes, rotating dish once during baking.
  • Oven times DO VARY since different ovens have different hot spots, but basically biscuits should be golden brown on top and spring back to the touch. Insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean with no batter, they are done!
