Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe

(Nutrition information is calculated using an ingredient database and should be considered an estimate.)

Buttermilk biscuits are flaky, soft, buttery, and perfect. They come hot out of the oven and are just begging to be slathered in butter! 

They are the best thing to make when having guests over. You can whip up the biscuits in no time and simply serve them with scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage. People can make their own biscuit sandwiches or just eat them separately. You can also turn them into biscuits and gravy! Nothing beats hot, sausage gravy poured over these babies. It’s to die for! 

When preparing the biscuits, it’s important to make sure you incorporate the butter when it is very cold. This helps the biscuits stay flaky, with little pockets of butter. Make sure to not over mix the dough. It should be just combined so the butter and dough aren’t over worked! 

The thicker you roll out the the biscuits, the taller and puffier they will be. I think they look prettiest when they are brushed with butter when they are hot out of the oven. The extra butter also tastes amazing. 

These biscuits freeze really well, too. Just pop them out of the freezer and into the oven or toaster oven when you are ready to serve them. They will heat back up in about 10 minutes time. 

Make sure to have fresh jam and butter, too!
