Ingredients

  • 3 cups self rising flour
  • 1/2 cup butter, frozen plus 2 Tbsp melted to brush tops
  • 1 cup buttermilk, well shaken

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking pan with parchment. Set aside. I(Alternately brush a 10 inch cast iron skillet with butter.)
  • Place flour into a medium bowl. Grate butter into the flour then toss through to evenly distribute.
  • Add buttermilk, mixing with a fork until fully moistened. The dough may appear shaggy or stringy.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and turn a few times to bring it together and coat lightly with flour. Press or roll into an 8 inch rectangle. Bring ends to the center, then turn 90 degrees and repeat rolling into a rectangle, folding edges to the center. Repeat process for 3 times total. Leave biscuit dough around 3/4 inches thick.
  • Use a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter dipped in flour to cut into rounds. Place onto pan and brush the tops with melted butter.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until puffed and golden. (You can broil to brown the tops further.)
  • Serve immediately with butter and jam.
