    List of Ingredients




    Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits


    9 ounces all-purpose flour (about 2 cups)
    2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    5 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
    3/4 cup fat-free buttermilk
    3 tablespoons honey

    Recipe




    Preheat oven to 400°.

    Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.

    Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.

    Chill 10 minutes.

    Combine buttermilk and honey, stirring with a whisk until well blended.

    Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture; stir just until moist.

    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 times.

    Roll dough into a (1/2-inch-thick) 9 x 5–inch rectangle; dust top of dough with flour.

    Fold dough crosswise into thirds (as if folding a piece of paper to fit into an envelope).

    Re-roll dough into a (1/2-inch-thick) 9 x 5–inch rectangle; dust top of dough with flour.

    Fold dough crosswise into thirds; gently roll or pat to a 3/4-inch thickness.

    Cut dough with a 1 3/4-inch biscuit cutter to form 14 dough rounds.

    Place dough rounds, 1 inch apart, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Bake at 400° for 12 minutes or until golden.

    Remove from pan; cool 2 minutes on wire racks.

    Serve warm.
