April 11th, 2017 by Jim Field
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons cold butter
- 3/4 to 1 cup butermilk
- 1 tablespoon fat-free milk
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough buttermilk just to moisten dough.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 3-4 times. Pat or roll to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut with a floured 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter. Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Brush with milk. Bake at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with butter.
