- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the biscuits and minimal cleanup. - Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. These dry ingredients will create the base of the dough, giving the biscuits their light texture. - Add Wet Ingredients:
Pour in the cold buttermilk and melted butter. Stir gently with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; this will keep the biscuits tender and flaky. The dough will be a little sticky, but that’s perfect! - Shape the Biscuits:
You can either drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet for a more rustic look or gently roll the dough out on a floured surface and cut it into rounds for a more uniform shape. - Optional Toppings:
For extra flavor, brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with your favorite herbs or shredded cheese (if desired). This adds a golden, flavorful finish to the biscuits. - Bake:
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and have risen beautifully. Keep an eye on them, as baking times can vary slightly depending on your oven. - Serve Warm:
Enjoy these biscuits immediately, fresh out of the oven. Serve them with butter, jam, or any spread of your choice. They’re perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a savory side dish to any meal!
