Looking for recipes from world-class chefs that will impress family, friends or guests? The Inspired Home is the choice for all your recipe needs. The best buttermilk biscuits I've made since I began my quest for the perfect biscuit.

To get started with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook buttermilk biscuits using 6 ingredients and 15 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Buttermilk biscuits:
  1. Make ready 2 cup of all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the board.
  2. Take 1/4 tsp baking soda
  3. Make ready 1 tbsp baking powder ( use one without aluminum it said but I did just regular)
  4. Prepare 1 tsp kosher salt OR 1 teaspoon of salt
  5. Get 6 tbsp unsalted butter, very cold( I used salted and tasted great)
  6. Get 1 cup Buttermilk (approx)

This recipe came from my great-great-grandmother, and was handed down to all the women in my family, and we are all Southern. I am the first one to commit the sin of using a food processor (lol) but I find it works very well. I would put these biscuits up against anyone's - they are perfect in every single way. Sift flour and baking soda together in a large bowl; cut in shortening with a knife or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Instructions to make Buttermilk biscuits:
  1. Preheat your oven to 450
  2. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, or in a food processor if you have one. Works better and saves so much time.
  3. Cut the butter into chunks and cut into the flour until it resembles course meal.
  4. If your using a food processor, just pulse a few times until this consistency is achieved
  5. Add the buttermilk and mix JUST until combined
  6. If it appears on the dry side, add more buttermilk. It should be very wet. Turn the dough out onto a floured board.
  7. Gently, gently PAT (DO NOT ROLL WITH A ROLLING PIN) the dough out until it's about 1/2" thick. Fold the dough about 5 times, gently press the dough down to 1 inch thick
  8. Use a round cutter to cut into rounds
  9. You can gently knead the scraps together and make a few more. But they will not be anywhere near as good as the first ones.
  10. Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet. If you like soft sides put them touching each other. If you like "crusty" sides, put them about 1 inch apart. These will not rise as high as the ones put close together.
  11. Bake for about 10-12 minutes. The biscuits will be a beautiful light golden brown on both top and bottom. DO NOT OVER BAKE!!
  12. The dough needs to be handled as little as possible or you will have tough biscuits.
  13. Notes: I have found a food processor produces superior biscuits. because the ingredients stay colder and there's less chance of over mixing.
  14. You must also pat the dough out with your hands, lightly. Rolling with a rolling pin is a guaranteed way to over stimulate the gluten resulting in a tougher biscuit

Make a well in the center of the mixture and stir in buttermilk until a soft ball forms. Biscuits and gravy is one of my all time favorite breakfast combinations πŸ˜€ Some people prefer to cut the biscuits up into bite size pieces, then pour the gravy over the top, but I've always either put it right on top of the biscuit, or cut the biscuit in half, then pour it all over. This is my go-to biscuit recipe for biscuits and gravy! It can be easily made by pulsing the cubed butter into the flour using a food processor, then adding just enough buttermilk for a nice moist dough (also pulsed in using the food processor). Be sure to use parchment paper when baking.
