| Prep time | 45 minutes |
| 3 | Cup | Flour |
| 5 | Teaspoon | Baking Powder |
| 1 1⁄2 | Teaspoon | Salt |
| 1⁄2 | Teaspoon | Baking Soda |
| 1⁄2 | Cup | Unsalted Butter (chilled, plus 1 tablespoon melted) |
| 1 | Cup | Buttermilk |
| 2 | Tablespoon | Heavy Cream |
1.Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cube the butter and place it in the freezer.
2.Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a mixing bowl. Add the butter then cut it into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender, until it becomes crumbly and resembles peas.
3.Mix in 1 cup cold buttermilk, just until the crumbs are thoroughly moistened. Add up to ¼ cup additional buttermilk, if needed. The dough shouldn't be overly wet but, slightly sticky.
4.Roll out on a lightly floured surface about 1-inch thick. Cut into rounds using a 2-inch cookie cutter dipped in flour. Do not twist the dough with the cutter. Cut the dough, then lift the cookie cutter up.
5.Place biscuits 2-inches apart on the baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy cream. Bake at 450°F for 13-15 minutes until lightly golden and puffed. Brush with 1 tablespoon melted butter after removing from the oven. Serve immediately.
