Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 stick butter
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 4 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp salt
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

- Add the buttermilk to the dry ingredients and mix until a moist dough forms.
- Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl, then pour it into an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish, ensuring the dish is large enough to contain the butter without spilling during baking.
- Place the dough on top of the melted butter in the baking dish, using a spatula to spread it evenly until it touches the sides.
- Cut the unbaked dough into 9 even squares, allowing them to sit in the butter.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top.

- Storage:
- These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when they are warm and fluffy. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. After that, they may start to lose their freshness and become stale.
- Reheating:
- To reheat the biscuits, you can either microwave them for about 20-30 seconds until warm or place them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-10 minutes until heated through.
- Serving Suggestions:
- These biscuits are incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways. Serve them for breakfast with scrambled eggs and bacon, as a side dish for lunch or dinner alongside soup or salad, or even as a dessert with a drizzle of honey or a dollop of whipped cream. They also pair well with savory spreads like herb butter or creamy cheese. Experiment with different toppings and fillings to customize them to your liking.
