Kentucky Biscuits are a classic Southern treat known for their light, flaky texture and buttery flavor. These biscuits are perfect for breakfast or as a side dish to any meal. Their simplicity and deliciousness make them a staple in many households.
2 cups all-purpose flour
2½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 dash salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ cup butter
¾ cup buttermilk
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
Cut in ½ cup butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix in the buttermilk.
Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead for 2 minutes.
Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet, roll into a 6x6 inch square, and cut into 12 even sections. Do not separate.
Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center of the square comes out clean.
Separate into biscuits, and serve hot.
