    Southern Buttermilk Biscuits, These buttermilk biscuits are authentic This recipe came from my great-great-grandmother, and was handed down to all the women in my family, and we are all Southern I am the first one to commit the sin of using a food processor (lol) but I find it works very well I would put these biscuits up against anyone’s – they are perfect in every single way I hope you all enjoy them , Can I make a double batch and refrigerate half the dough for tomorrow Or are the biscuits good next day?, Can I make these if I live north of the Mason-Dixon line?

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Preheat Your Oven to 450f.

    2
    Done

    Combine the Dry Ingredients in a Bowl, or in the Bowl of a Food Processor.

    3
    Done

    Cut the Butter Into Chunks and Cut Into the Flour Until It Resembles Course Meal.

    4
    Done

    If Using a Food Processor, Just Pulse a Few Times Until This Consistency Is Achieved.

    5
    Done

    Add the Buttermilk and Mix Just Until Combined.

    6
    Done

    If It Appears on the Dry Side, Add a Bit More Buttermilk. It Should Be Very Wet.

    7
    Done

    Turn the Dough Out Onto a Floured Board.

    8
    Done

    Gently, Gently Pat (do not Roll With a Rolling Pin) the Dough Out Until It's About 1/2" Thick. Fold the Dough About 5 Times, Gently Press the Dough Down to a 1 Inch Thick.

    9
    Done

    Use a Round Cutter to Cut Into Rounds.

    10
    Done

    You Can Gently Knead the Scraps Together and Make a Few More, but They Will not Be Anywhere Near as Good as the First Ones.

    11
    Done

    Place the Biscuits on a Cookie Sheet- If You Like Soft Sides, Put Them Touching Each Other.

    12
    Done

    If You Like"crusty" Sides, Put Them About 1 Inch Apart- These Will not Rise as High as the Biscuits Put Close Together.

    13
    Done

    Bake For About 10-12 Minutes- the Biscuits Will Be a Beautiful Light Golden Brown on Top and Bottom.

    14
    Done

    Do not Overbake.

    15
    Done

    Note: the Key to Real Biscuits Is not in the Ingredients, but in the Handling of the Dough.
