Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 6 Tbsp cold butter cubed
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • Buttermilk for brushing

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, mix together dry ingredients and add in cold cubed butter. Cut the butter into a coarse crumble until it's pea shaped size.
  2. In a separate small bowl, mix together buttermilk and honey. Pour buttermilk mixture into dry ingredients and mix until dough starts to form.
  3. Dump your dough onto a table and fold a couple of times to make sure everything is combined. Do not overtax or knead the dough!
  4. Shape into an eve rectangle about ½ to ¾ inch thick. Using a cookie cutter or round glass, cut out your biscuits from the dough. Reform the rectangle again with the scraps and continue shaping biscuits until dough is gone.
  5. Line biscuits on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush biscuits with buttermilk and bake at 400℉ for 12-15 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven when biscuits are golden brow on top and crisp.
