Feast your eyes on these oven-fresh delights that’ll make you weak in the knees. Just look at that golden crust! It’s practically begging to be slathered with butter and jam.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Optional: honey or jam for serving (because why not?)
Instructions That Lead to Biscuit Glory:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Your biscuits are going to love this cozy heat!
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk it together like it owes you money!
- Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry blender or two forks until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Don’t worry if it gets messy; it’s all part of the fun!
- Add in the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix, or you’ll end up with something that resembles hockey pucks!
- On a floured surface, gently knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Fold it over itself a couple of times to create that flaky goodness.
- Pat the dough out to about 1-inch thickness. Then, cut out your biscuits with a floured cutter or a drinking glass. Feel free to make them as big or small as you like – just remember, bigger biscuits mean bigger smiles!
- Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush the tops with a little extra buttermilk for that golden finish, and pop them in the oven.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown. The smell will be heavenly, and your family will suddenly become very interested in what’s happening in the kitchen.
Once they’re done, let them cool for a minute, but let’s be honest, there’s no shame in diving in while they’re still steaming. Enjoy your freshly baked Alberta biscuits with your favorite toppings and bask in the glory of your baking mastery!
