Swimming in Butter Biscuits
A Delicious Fluffy Biscuit Swimming in 1 stick of Butter using only 6 Ingredients.
Equipment
- 8 x 11 baking dish
- large mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 TBS baking powder
- 1 TBS white granulated sugar
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In an 8 x 11 baking dish pour and spread evenly melted butter and set aside.NOTE: Try not to use a smaller baking dish, as the butter may drip out of the edges into oven causing smoke or a fire. The 8 x 11 is a perfect size. If you use a 9 x 13 it's ok and the biscuits will come out thinner.
- In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt & sugar.NOTE: If you use self rising flour you will not need baking powder and salt as it is already in the self rising flour.
- Slowly add in buttermilk until all well combined. Dough will be sticky somewhat.NOTE: to make buttermilk, place 1 TBS of vinegar or lemon juice into a large 2 cup measuring cup. Pour in regular milk up to the 1 1/2 cup line. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Dollop the dough on top of the butter and smooth out to the edges of dish. Take a bread knife or steak knife and cut lines in the dough to make 12 biscuit.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown on tops of biscuits. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, cut biscuits shapes and enjoy.
