Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter chilled

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

1. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
3. Next, coat the cold stick of butter in flour mixture, then grate on the large hole side of the grater, right over the flour mixture. Cut in with a pastry cutter (fork works too) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a measuring cup, combine vinegar and half and half (or whole milk) and stir. Add egg and whisk well.
5. Add the wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough starts to come together.
6. Place dough onto floured surface and form into a disk. Press down until it is the thickness of two fingers (see video for visual). It's the easiest way to determine the thickness without reaching for a ruler with your flour-covered hands.
7. Cut the biscuits out with a biscuit cutter (or round cookie cutter). Place biscuits on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Gather the remaining dough together, press into a disk (as previously) and cut out few more biscuits. Form the last amount of dough into a round biscuit. Place on baking sheet. Brush each biscuit with melted butter. Bake biscuits for 18 minutes or until they rise, you can see the layers and the tops are golden.
