To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can have buttermilk biscuits using 5 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Buttermilk Biscuits:

This no-fail biscuit recipe will make you look like a pro, even if this is your first attempt at biscuit-making. The instructions below are precise for a reason and should be followed as written. Generously brush the tops of biscuits with buttermilk. But I also love them smeared with strawberry jam or covered in country gravy loaded with spicy pork sausage.
Steps to make Buttermilk Biscuits:
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees
- In large mixing bowl sift flour with baking powder. Cut in the shortening and work in with hands until you have beads of flour mixture.
- Add buttermilk into flour mixture. Stir with wooden spoon until all flour is wet. Again work with hands to until dough is ready to pour out and cut.
- Place dough on floured surface and either press out or roll with rolling pin to about 3/4 inch tall. Cut with biscuit cutter and place on greased cookie sheet. Place biscuits next to each other for maximum rise.
- I allow biscuits to rest for 5-10 minutes prior to popping in oven. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown.
- When you first pull out of oven brush with melted butter. Enjoy.
- I know some will ask why use self-rising flour and then add baking powder. I have found through testing that this recipe gives maximum rise and tenderness to the biscuits. You may find through your own trial and error that you prefer less rise and/or a more firm biscuit.
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. Sift flour and baking soda together in a large bowl; cut in shortening with a knife or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of the mixture and stir in buttermilk until a soft ball forms.
