Buttermilk Biscuits
2 C (280 g) cake flour
2 tsp (10 ml) baking powder
tsp (2.5 ml) bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp (5 ml) sugar
pinch of salt
125 g butter, cold and grated
C (185 ml) cold buttermilk
melted butter, for brushing
fresh cream, for serving

Preheat the oven to 200 C.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, using the paddle


attachment, sift together the flour, baking powder,
bicarbonate of soda, sugar and salt. Add the butter
and mix until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add
the buttermilk and mix until the dough just comes
together. This can also be done by hand.

Roll out the dough to about 3 cm thick and cut out


large rounds. Place each round on an ungreased
baking tray or a silicone baking mat. Leave at least
3 cm space between the rounds. Brush the tops
of the biscuits with melted butter. Bake for
1820 minutes, or until light golden brown.

Serve immediately with whipped fresh cream.
