Main Ingredients:
- 2 ½ cups (318 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) buttermilk
- 1 stick (113 grams) butter
Leavening and Seasoning Ingredients:
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 4 teaspoons sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by heating to a scorching 450°F, creating the perfect climate for golden, crispy biscuits.
- In a spacious mixing vessel, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until the dry ingredients form a harmonious blend.
- Introduce buttermilk to the dry mixture, gently stirring until a cohesive, slightly shaggy dough emerges.
- Transform butter into a liquid state using microwave, then cascade the molten golden liquid into a square baking vessel, ensuring complete coverage of the dish’s bottom.
- Carefully distribute the soft dough across the butter-lined pan, allowing the edges to kiss the dish’s perimeters and create a rustic landscape.
- With a sharp blade, carve the dough into nine distinctive sections, promoting even heat distribution and facilitating easy separation post-baking.
- Slide the pan into the preheated oven, allowing the biscuits to transform for 20-25 minutes until their surface achieves a luxurious golden-brown complexion.
- Extract the baking dish, permitting the biscuits a brief moment to cool and settle before presenting these decadent, butter-infused treasures.

- These magical biscuits swim in a pool of melted butter, creating a crispy golden exterior with an incredibly soft interior.
- Cutting the dough before baking ensures each piece gets perfectly coated in rich, delectable butter, making every bite a heavenly experience.
- Serving these straight from the oven guarantees maximum flavor and that irresistible warm, comforting sensation that makes homemade biscuits so special.
