01 -
2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder
03 -
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt
05 -
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed

3/4 cup buttermilk, cold
# Steps:
01 -
Heat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly blended.

Add cold, cubed unsalted butter to the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or fingertips to rub in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Pour cold buttermilk into the bowl and gently stir just until the dough starts to come together, avoiding overmixing.

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat and fold the dough gently over itself 4 to 5 times to build layers.

Roll dough to approximately 1 inch thickness. Cut biscuits using a floured round cutter.

Arrange biscuits on prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until tops are golden brown.
# Notes:

For flakier results, ensure butter and buttermilk remain cold throughout the process.
