THE MOST FLUFFY AND BUTTERY BISCUITS EVER

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
• Add the butter and using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until pea-like crumbs form.
• Stir in the beaten eggs with a wooden spoon until just combined. Then pour in the buttermilk until the dough comes together into a sticky mass. You may need more buttermilk if it's still too dry and there is flour still at the bottom of your bowl. I ended up having to add in 1/2 cup more. DO NOT add 1/2 cup more all at the same time. Do 1 tablespoon at a time until the right consistency is reached.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• When ready, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• In a small dish, beat together remaining egg and buttermilk then brush on top of the biscuits.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
• Let cool slightly before devouring! They're best eaten out of the oven, day of.
• Serve with your favorite sausage gravy, jam, or clotted cream.

BAKING POWDER BISCUITS FOR TWO

A few lumps are actually a good thing in this type of dough, so don't stress about getting it perfect.

• Pat the dough down until it is about 1/2 inch thick.
