Biscuits - the best homemade biscuits recipe with high, buttery, 
flaky and crumbly layers. Easy step-by-step recipe with three ingredients only.

Note: Whitelily Flour brand

PREP: 25 MINUTES
COOK: 45 MINUTES
TOTAL: 1:10

Slice the cold unsalted butter into 1/4" thick (6 slices). Add the 
self-rising flour in a large bowl and toss in the butter slices. 
Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until the 
mixture is crumbly and resembles small peas. Cover and refrigerate 
for 10 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450F (230C). Lightly butter a baking sheet or 
line it with parchment paper.

Add the buttermilk to the flour mixture, gently stirring with a fork 
until the flour is moistened. The dough will be very sticky. Turn the 
dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 3 or 4 
times, gradually adding more flour as needed. Using floured hands, 
press and pat the dough into a 3/4" thick rectangle (it should 
measure about 9 by 5"). Sprinkle the dough with a little more flour. 
Starting at a short end, fold the dough over onto itself in 3 
sections as if folding a letter-size piece of paper. You should end 
up with a rectangle shape. Press the dough into a 3/4" thick again 
and repeat the entire process 2 more times, adding additional flour as needed.

Press and pat the dough to 1/2" thick on a lightly floured surface. 
Cut the dough with a floured 2" cutter. Place the biscuits on the 
baking sheet. Assemble the dough scraps and cut out more biscuits 
until all dough is used up.

Bake the biscuits for 13 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. 
Brush the tops with the melted butter and let cool slightly. Serve 
warm with your favorite preserves.
