Joanna Gaines Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe
Joanna Gaines Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe is soft, fluffy and buttery. These biscuits are perfect for breakfast or as a side dish.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
Optional for brushing:
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and ensures even baking.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make sure all ingredients are evenly combined for a fluffy biscuit texture.
Cut in the Butter
- Add cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or fork to blend until it looks like coarse crumbs. Small butter pieces help create flaky layers.
Add Buttermilk
- Pour cold buttermilk into the flour mixture. Stir gently with a spoon until dough comes together. Do not overmix or biscuits may become dense.
Roll and Cut Biscuits
- Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll to about one-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut rounds. Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the Biscuits
- Bake in preheated oven for 12–15 minutes. Biscuits should be golden brown on top. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Brush with Butter (Optional)
- Brush the tops with melted butter while still warm. This adds extra flavor and a shiny golden finish. Serve immediately for best taste.
Notes
- Keep butter cold for flakier biscuits.
- Do not overmix the dough to keep biscuits tender.
- Use a sharp cutter for clean edges.
- Bake immediately after cutting for best rise.
- Brush with butter for extra flavor.
- Experiment with adding herbs for a savory twist.
