Easy Buttermilk Biscuits

Need some buttermilk biscuits quick? This is the recipe for you!

You will need the following:

•3 1/2 cups self-rising flour
•2 tbsp sugar
•1 1/4 cup butter, unsalted
•1 cup buttermilk
•1 egg, beaten
•1/4 tsp kosher salt

Preheat the oven to 425F

In a large bowl, whisk flour and sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbly then slowly add the buttermilk, stirring with a wooden spoon until it forms a loose dough.

Turn the dough out on a lightly floured surface and form into a square about 1 inch thick.

Cut into quarters, stack on top of each other, and roll out again. Roll into a square, cut, and stack once more. Finally, roll into a rectangle about 3/4 inch thick.

Cut into about 15-20 pieces

Place the cut biscuits on a baking sheet and place in the freezer for 10 minutes (this makes them more fluffy)

Brush the tops of the biscuits with the egg and sprinkle with a small amount of salt.

Bake for about 15 minutes, until golden brown.

Serve warm with butter or jelly.
