Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup 1 stick butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt. Whisk the ingredients together until evenly mixed.
- Pour in the buttermilk and gently stir until a moist dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
- Pour the melted butter into an 8x8-inch baking dish, ensuring it covers the bottom evenly.

- Cut the dough into 9 equal squares before placing it in the oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Enjoy!

These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
