Title: Buttermilk Biscuits 2
Categories: Home Cookin,
Yield: 12

1 c all-purpose flour, sifted
1 ts baking power
1/8 ts baking soda
1/4 ts salt
2 tb unsalted butter
1/4 c plus 1 teaspoon buttermilk

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with
parchment or wax paper.

2. In a bowl combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly.
Cream in the butter with your fingers or a fork, until the
mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk a little at
a time and, using your hands or a fork, work it in just until
it's thoroughly incorporated and you have a smooth ball of dough.
Don't overwork or overhandle the dough.

3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough with a
rolling pin to a circle about 7 inches in diameter, 1/2 inch
thick. Using a small round cookie cutter or the rim of a shot
glass, press out twelve 1" rounds. If you like, you can reroll
the leftover dough to make more, but the texture of these will be
denser than the others.

4. Place the dough rounds on the baking sheet and bake until
golden on top and brown on the bottom, for about 15 minutes.
Serve warm.
