Servings: 8 biscuits
Calories: 303kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups White Lily self-rising flour
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter frozen
- 3/4 cup buttermilk cold
- 2 tablespoons unsalted melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Whisk together flour, salt, and sugar in a medium sized bowl and set aside.
- Using a cheese shredded, grate butter into the bowl of dry ingredients.
- Pour in buttermilk and combine.
- Roll out dough then fold over itself. Repeat rolling out dough then folding two more times.
- Finally roll out dough and either cut into biscuit sized pieces or use a round cookie cutter or back of a can to make round biscuits.
- Add biscuits to a slightly oiled pan and bake 12-14 minutes then serve. (These don't brown very much so if you want them browner, you can turn on the broiler for a few seconds but don't overbake them or they will lose their tender quality and get a bit harder).
