Buttery Elegance: Melt-in-Your-Mouth Butter-Infused Biscuits Ingredients

The magic lies in the simplicity of the ingredients:

• Flour: 2 ½ cups (312.5 g) all-purpose flour
• Sugar: 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• Buttermilk: 2 cups (490 g) (homemade buttermilk can be easily prepared)
• Butter: ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted

How to Store Biscuits

While biscuits are at their best when enjoyed fresh on the same day, you can prepare them a day ahead following these steps:

1. Bake the biscuits.
2. Allow them to cool to room temperature.
3. Wrap tightly with foil (use plastic wrap only if the biscuits are completely cooled to avoid sogginess).
4. Refrigerate until ready to use (or leave at room temperature if preferred).
5. Warm in the oven at the lowest temperature for up to 10 minutes when ready to serve.

How to Freeze Biscuits

For long-term enjoyment, freeze the cooled biscuits by wrapping them tightly with foil or plastic wrap and placing them in a freezer-safe storage bag. Properly sealed, they should remain fresh for a couple of months.

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to sift the ingredients.
3. Pour in the buttermilk and stir until mostly combined, avoiding overworking the batter.
4. Pour the melted butter into an 8×8-inch baking dish. Place the dough on top of the butter and use a spatula (or your hands) to evenly spread the dough out to the edges of the pan.
5. Cut the unbaked dough into 9 squares (3×3 pattern). Bake for 28 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
6. Allow the butter to be absorbed into the biscuits before cutting and serving.
