Buttermilk Biscuits

Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits are easy and sooooo much better than biscuits from a can!

Buttermilk Biscuits

2 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. soda
5 Tbsp. butter
1 c. buttermilk

Mix flour, baking powder, salt and soda in a medium bowl with a whisk. Cut in the butter until the mixture is course like crumbs. Add milk all at once. Stir until dough follows fork around bowl. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead just a couple times, roll out to 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a glass or biscuit cutter. Bake on ungreased baking sheet or pizza stone at 450 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes until lightly browned.
Makes approximately 2 dozen.

Tip: If you don't have buttermilk, add a Tbsp. lemon juice to a cup of milk, let it set for 10-15 minutes.

This is a great option for stew at dinner. Or for breakfast with your favorite sausage gravy, or butter and honey or jelly. Enjoy!!

Expect to Break an Egg with this one, you'll receive rave reviews for your light and fluffy creation!
