Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 cup buttermilk, cold
• 1/4 cup heavy cream, cold
• 2 tablespoons honey

Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before starting the recipe.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
2. Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your hands to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, heavy cream, and honey.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
6. Pat the dough into a circle that’s about 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick.
7. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out the biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake the biscuits for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

FAQs

1. Can I use regular milk instead of buttermilk?

Yes, you can substitute regular milk for buttermilk. However, the biscuits will not be as tender and fluffy as they would be with buttermilk.

2. Can I freeze the biscuits?

Yes, you can freeze the biscuits. After cutting them out, place them on a baking sheet and freeze until firm. Then, transfer the biscuits to a freezer-safe container or bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and bake the frozen biscuits for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

3. Can I use a different type of flour?

Yes, you can use a different type of flour, but the texture and taste of the biscuits may be different. All-purpose flour is recommended for the best results.
