Equipment

  • 9 inch round pan

Ingredients

Melt butter:

  • 1 stick butter melted

Mix Dry Ingredients:

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt

Add Buttermilk to Dry Mixture:

  • 2 cups buttermilk

Instructions

  • FIRST, set your oven to 450 degrees.
  • You can always melt your butter on the stove top or microwave. I just put it in my 9 inch cake pan and melt it on the stove on low. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn or brown.
  • While the oven is preheating and the butter is melting, combine your dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Next, add the buttermilk and mix all of the ingredients together until a moist dough is formed.
  • Check on your butter occasionally. It's probably melted by now.
  • Spread dough right on top of the melted butter and use an offset spatula to spread it evenly across the pan making sure the dough touches the sides.
  • Cut the unbaked buttery dough into wedges. This dough is very wet, just do the best you can, and let the butter seep into the crevices.
  • Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Serve biscuits nice and hot.
