Grandma’s Biscuits

Ingredients:

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 8 teaspoons cold unsalted butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons melted salted butter for brushing surface

Directions:

1. Preheat and Combine: Begin by preheating the oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, sift together 2½ cups of flour, 2 tablespoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. “Sifted mixture” is then transferred to a food processor, where cold butter is added and processed until it forms a loose crumb.

2. Form Dough: Transfer the crumbly mixture to a bowl. Add milk to form a rough ball. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rough rectangle, about an inch thick. Fold and roll the dough six times, creating layers.

3. Shape and Cut: Roll out the dough to form a rectangle. Using a floured cup or cutter, cut the dough into individual biscuits. Be cautious not to press too hard to ensure proper rising during baking. Reshape and cut any leftover dough.

4. Bake: Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, ensuring they touch. Bake at 425°F for 10-15 minutes or until golden. “Serve and enjoy!”

5. Tips for Efficiency: For leftover dough, reshape it into a rectangle to minimize waste. This homemade buttermilk biscuits recipe promises a delightful result with simple steps.
