Ingredients
Ingredients:
5 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups sifted flour
2 teaspoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup or less of buttermilk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450°F and put the butter on to melt.
Sift and measure flour and sift again with the remaining ingredients. (I use a whisk)
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add buttermilk and melted butter.
Stir with a fork until the ingredients are moistened and the dough follows the fork around the bowl.
Turn the dough onto a floured board and knead gently about ten strokes.
Roll or pat to ½ – inch thickness.
Using a 2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut biscuits without twisting the cutter. Bake on an ungreased pan for 10 to 12 minutes.
