Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups (10 oz)+ 1cup (5 oz) unbleached all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp double-acting baking powder
1 Tbsp sugar
1tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking soda
4 Tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 1/2 cups cold low-fat buttermilk
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 500. Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. Generously spray the inside and outside of a 1/4 cup dry measure cup with nonstick cooking spray. Distribute 1 cup flour into a rimmed baking sheet. 2. In a food processor, pulse flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and baking soda to combine, about six 1-second pulses. Scatter butter cubes evenly over dry ingredients; pulse until mixture resembles pebbly, coarse cornmeal, eight to ten 1-second pulses. Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Add buttermilk to dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just incorporated (dough will be very wet and slightly lumpy.) 3. Using 1/4 cup dry measure and working quickly, scoop level amount of dough; drop dough from cup into flour on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, forming 12 evenly-sized mounds. Dust tops of each piece of dough with flour. With floured hands, gently pick up each piece of dough and coat with flour, gently shape into a rough ball, shake off excess and place in prepared cake pan. Arrange 9 rounds around perimeter of cake pan and 3 in center. Brush rounds with hot melted butter, taking care not to flatten them. 4. Bake 5 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 450; continue to bake until biscuits are deep golden brown, about 15 minutes longer. Cool in pan 2 minutes, then invert biscuits onto clean kitchen towlel; turn biscuits right-side up and break apart. Cool 5 minutes longer and serve.

I followed the recipe exactly and my biscuits turned out perfect! They were light and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior. I'll definitely be making these again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biscuits came out really dry. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

I followed the recipe exactly and my biscuits turned out flat and dense. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These biscuits were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time I make them.

These biscuits were a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier biscuit.

I'm not a huge fan of biscuits, but these were pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and they had a nice buttery flavor.

These biscuits were a hit at my brunch party! Everyone loved them, and they were gone in no time. I'll definitely be making them again for my next party.

Meh. These biscuits were just okay. They were a bit dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor.

I was a bit skeptical about the 'mile-high' claim, but these biscuits really did rise to the occasion! They were huge and fluffy, and they tasted amazing.

I've tried many biscuit recipes over the years, but these are by far the best. They're so flavorful and moist, and they have the perfect texture.
