Small Batch Buttermilk Biscuits
Tender, flaky, buttery biscuits warm from the oven…exactly what you need on a Saturday morning! These small batch buttermilk biscuits make exactly five biscuits!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
In a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Step 2
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Beat on low-medium speed until the butter is nearly pea-sized. It's okay to have a few bigger chunks.
- Step 3
Then, pour in the buttermilk and mix until just combined.
- Step 4
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and pat into a rough rectangle. Fold the dough over onto itself and gently roll out to about ½'' tall. Repeat this one more time.
- Step 5
Cut the dough into five equal pieces or use a 2 ½'' round biscuit cutter and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Freeze the biscuits for about 20 minutes.
- Step 6
Near the end of the freeze time, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush the tops of the bicuits with buttermilk and bake for 18-20 minutes until they are golden brown.
