Fool Proof Fluffy biscuits

Ingredients

  • cups self-rising flour plus more for dusting
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 i teaspoon sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425. Sift flour, sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl. Transfer to a food processor. Cut butter into cubes and add to flour, then pulse 6 or 7 times until the mixture resembles rough crumbs. (Alternatively, cut butter into flour in the mixing bowl using a grater, fork or a pastry cutter.) Return dough to bowl, add buttermilk and stir with a fork until it forms a rough ball (don’t worry if it is a little sticky).
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll it into a rough rectangle, about an inch thick. Fold it over and gently roll it down again. Repeat 6 times. Cover the dough loosely with a kitchen towel and allow it to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Gently roll out the dough some more, so that it forms a rectangle. Cut dough into biscuits using a floured glass or biscuit cutter. Do not twist cutter when cutting; this will crimps the edges of the biscuit causing it not to rise. If you have scraps just reform a rectangle and cut additional biscuits.
  • Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Serves 6 to 8.
