Yield Makes 14 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 14

For the biscuits:
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
3/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. (1 3/4 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
For the Honey Butter:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons flaky sea salt, plus more for serving
Special equipment:
A 2 1/2-inch-diameter round cutter or glass

Steps:

  • For the biscuits:
  • Position rack in middle of oven and preheat to 425°F. Whisk sugar, baking powder, kosher salt, baking soda, and 3 cups flour in a large bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or 2 butter knives until pea-sized lumps form. Stir in buttermilk until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Gather dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, press into an 8" square. Fold sides over like a letter. Turn 90º and fold sides again, forming a small square. Press or roll to an 8" square and repeat once, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking.
  • Pat dough into a scant 3/4" round. Cut out rounds with 2 1/2" cutter; transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Gather scraps and repeat patting and cutting (you should have 14). Freeze until chilled, about 15 minutes.
  • Bake biscuits, rotating sheet halfway through, until golden brown, 22-24 minutes.
  • For the Honey Butter:
  • Stir butter, honey, and 2 tsp. sea salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
  • Top biscuits with Honey Butter and sprinkle with sea salt; serve warm or at room temperature.
