Ingredients

4 cups Wheat flour, white, all-purpose, enriched, bleached
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup cold salted butter, cubed
1 ½ cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons buttermilk

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut butter in with a pastry blender or 2 knives until it resembles bread crumbs. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups buttermilk.
Put biscuit dough onto a floured surface and sprinkle a bit of extra flour on top. Cut out 16 biscuits with a biscuit or cookie cutter and place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining buttermilk.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 10 minutes.
