I wanted a quick and simple biscuit recipe. I grew up on homemade buttermilk biscuits and this is pretty close to what my granny used to make...I adapted this from a recipe that makes a huge batch, because I only need a few at the time...also works great for a pot pie topping.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self rising flour, sifted 1 time-i use white lily
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons buttermilk
  • 1 1/4 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • - extra melted butter for brushing onto the biscuits

How To Make quick buttermilk biscuits

  • Step 1
    Heat oven to 475%. Mix all ingredients until dough leaves sides of bowl and begins to form a ball. You can adjust how wet or dry your batter is now. You can either turn dough onto a floured surface, roll to 1/2 inch thick and cut out biscuits, or you can pat biscuits out by hand...or like I do when I am in a hurry, plop out heaping tablespoons full onto a cookie sheet. Brush the tops with a little extra melted butter. Bake at 475 for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until the tops begin to brown lightly.
  • Step 2
    Remove, slice and add butter. This is also great as a pot pie topping...
