📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 450F, with rack on middle position. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
2
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl (or bowl of a food processor.) Using a pastry cutter or a food processor, cut the butter into chunks and cut into the flour mixture until it resembles course meal. Ideally, there will be little bits of butter that are still intact. If using a food processor, just pulse a few times until this consistency is achieved. Gently add the buttermilk and fold with a rubber spatula just until combined wet/dry ingredients are combined - don't over-mix. If it's too dry, add a bit more buttermilk. Dough should be relatively wet.

Roll

Turn the dough out onto a floured board. Gently, use your hands to pat dough out until it's about 1/2" thick - do not use a rolling pin; it will help to have a little bowl of oil and coat your palms with oil.

Fold
6
Use your hands to fold the dough 5 times into a ball and then gently press the dough to 1" thick.

Cut
8
Use a round biscuit cutter to cut dough into rounds. (I used 2.75" cutter. Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet. For soft edges, place them touching each other. For crusty edges, place them 1 inch apart.
9
Bake for about ⏱️ 10-12 minutes or until biscuits are light golden brown on top and bottom. Do not overbake. Serve warm; top with sugar if desired.
