These golden buttermilk biscuits are fluffy, flavorful, and perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Ensure the dry ingredients are evenly combined for consistent flavor.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Cold butter is key to creating flaky layers in the biscuits.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg, then pour this mixture into the dry ingredients.
Mix just until the dough comes together; overmixing can make the biscuits tough.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter.
Avoid twisting the cutter to ensure the biscuits rise evenly.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
For a golden finish, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
Serve the biscuits warm with your favorite toppings or as a side to your meal.
Biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven for maximum flavor and texture.
