Buttery Buttermilk Biscuits
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Hiland Dairy salted butter, frozen
- 2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup chilled Hiland Dairy buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Hiland Dairy salted butter melted
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut up frozen butter into small chunks and toss together with the flour. Chill for 10-15 minutes.
- Diva’s Tip – Use a box grater to shave the butter into small pieces. It’s easier and faster.
- Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the buttermilk. Stir only 15 times to make the dough sticky.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Using a floured rolling pin, roll dough into a 1/2 inch rectangle.
- Fold the dough in half using the short ends. Repeat this rolling and folding process four times.
- When the dough is rolled into a rectangle, cut out biscuits using a floured 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Reshape the dough as needed.
- Place dough rounds on a jellyroll pan lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Brush the tops with melted butter.
- Serve warm with butter and jam.
