Ingredients
- • 2 cups all-purpose flour
- • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- • 1 teaspoon salt
- • 8 tablespoons ice cold butter
- • 3/4 cup buttermilk
- • Cinnamon Spiced Butter, recipe follows
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
Slice butter and put on a plate in the freezer.
Sift the dry ingredients together into a bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or a fork until it looks like coarse sand. Add the buttermilk and continue to cut the dough together. Turn out onto a floured surface and gently bring together. Gently press the dough into a rectangle until it is between 1/2 and 3/4-inch thick.
Use a round cutter that has been floured to cut the biscuits. Place in the freezer for at least 20 minutes.
Remove biscuits from freezer and place on parchment paper on a baking sheet so they are touching each other. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve with spiced butter.
Cinnamon Spiced Butter:
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 8 tablespoons butter, softened
Mix dry ingredients together. Blend together with the butter using the back of a spoon. Wrap tightly and refrigerate overnight or a few hours.
