Preheat oven to 425 F.

Step 2

Whisk dry ingredients together in a medium bowl.

Step 3

Cut in cold butter with pastry cutter or just use your hands to break the butter up into pea-sized pieces with the dry mix.

Step 4

Pour in almost all of your buttermilk. leave a few tablespoons out just in case the mix is too wet. Stir gently until dough comes together when you pinch it.

Step 5

Pour mix onto floured surface and use hands to combine the dough, and pat out a flat rectangle (about 1/2 inch thick) Fold the rectangle into thirds over itself and then use a rolling pin to roll out the dough again into a rectangle (this creates your layers). Repeat a few times. The rectangle should be around 1/2 inch thick. Using the bottom of a glass or biscuit cutter punch out your biscuits, roll excess together and flatten to repeat. Place close together on a sheet pan, brush tops of biscuits with melted butter and milk.

Step 6

Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden.

Step 7

If you don't have buttermilk on hand and easy substitution is 1 cup of milk and 1 Tbsp of white vinegar.
