Ingredients

For the Biscuits

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
• 1 tablespoon Mountainside Apiary Wisconsin Clover Honey

Honey Butter Glaze

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Mountainside Apiary Wisconsin Clover Honey

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a cast-iron skillet.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and baking soda.
3. Add the cold cubed butter and cut it into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and honey.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently fold it over itself 4 to 5 times to create flaky layers.
7. Pat the dough to about 1-inch thick and cut with a 2½-inch biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits so they’re just touching on the prepared baking sheet or skillet.
8. Bake for 13–15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.
9. While the biscuits bake, whisk together the melted butter and honey.
10. As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, generously brush the tops with the warm honey butter glaze. Serve warm.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with breakfast, fried chicken, chili, soups, roasted meats, or simply enjoy warm with an extra drizzle of honey. They’re also delicious split open and topped with butter or your favorite fruit preserves.
