ingredients

biscuits
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp + 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbsp + 1 tsp honey
  • 1 cup + 1 Tbsp buttermilk
honey butter glaze
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/3 cup honey

instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Add flour, baking power, salt, and baking soda to a large bowl. Stir to combine.
  • Cut in butter using two knives, a pastry cutter, or your hands until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk and honey, until just moistened.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough until it is smooth. This will take a few minutes as the dough is dry at first. If your dough is dry after kneading, add 1 Tbsp buttermilk at a time, kneading a couple of times in between, until no longer dry. Be sure not to add to much, the dough should not be wet.
  • Roll out until it's 1-inch thick. Cut into circles that are 2 to 2 1/2-inches in diameters.
  • Whisk together honey and melted butter for the honey butter glaze.
  • Brush the mixture over the biscuits.
  • Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Serve warm.
