Honey butter biscuits Recipe

American · Bread · 30 min total

Flaky, buttery biscuits brushed with a sweet honey butter glaze, perfect for breakfast or as a side.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
3. Cut in cold cubed butter using a pastry blender or fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter pieces.
4. Make a well and pour in buttermilk. Stir with a fork just until dough comes together; do not overmix.
5. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 2-3 times. Pat into a 3/4-inch thick rectangle.
6. Fold dough in half, pat down again to 3/4-inch thickness. Repeat folding 2 more times for layers.
7. Cut out biscuits with a 2.5-inch round cutter, pressing straight down without twisting. Reroll scraps once.
8. Place biscuits on prepared baking sheet, touching slightly for soft sides or 1 inch apart for crisp edges.
9. Bake 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Meanwhile, whisk honey with melted butter.
10. Brush hot biscuits with honey butter glaze. Serve warm.

Tips

• For extra flaky biscuits, freeze the butter and grate it into the flour mixture.
• Leftover biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes to refresh.
