Ingredients
- 250 g All Purpose Flour
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 60 g Butter Unsalted, cold and diced
- 150 ml Buttermilk
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 220°C (200°C fan) and lining a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, blend together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the cold, diced butter into the dry ingredients and use your fingertips to work it in until the mixture reaches a breadcrumb-like consistency.
- Add the buttermilk and gently stir until just combined, taking care not to overmix; the dough should have a slightly sticky texture.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and lightly knead it a few times until it forms a cohesive mass.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of approximately 2cm and employ a round cutter to shape the biscuits.
- Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking tray and bake them in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they turn a golden brown colour and are thoroughly cooked.
- Take them out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
