Buttermilk Biscuits

4 cups self-rising flour

2 TBL baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

3 sticks salted butter, cold, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

2 large eggs

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Preheat oven to 400℉. In a stand mixer with a paddle mix the flour, powder and soda. Cut butter and add to running mixer a little at a time. Add eggs and mix well. Add buttermilk and mix until a dough forms and there is no more loose flour. Turn out on a floured surface and press with your hands until dough is about an inch thick. Cut out the biscuits with a round cutter or you could use the mouth of a glass (dip it in flour first). Place biscuits on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

These freeze really well. After rolling out and cutting the biscuits, put them on a parchment lined cookie sheet and stick in the freezer overnight. I keep them in a ziplock bag and bake them up a few at a time whenever the mood strikes.
