Instructions
Creating Buttermilk Drop Biscuits is a breeze. Follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour the melted butter and buttermilk into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Drop the Batter: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop heaping tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Keep them about 1 inch apart.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
6. Brush with Butter: For an extra touch of flavor, brush the tops with melted butter immediately after removing them from the oven.
7. Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuits to cool for a minute on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
