Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 6 tablespoons butter, divided
• 1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 500. Spray a 10 inch pan with Pam.
Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda and salt and mix together. Add 4 tablespoons of butter to flour mixture, and using a pastry blender, blend the butter until its about the size of a small pea.

Add buttermilk and mix together. Note the batter is going
to be really sticky!

Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop out batter into your floured hand and shape into a ball. Don’t overwork the dough.

Put 8 balls around the pan, 2 in the middle. Bake at 500 degrees for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 450 and cook another 15 minutes.
