Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter (-melted, ½ stick)

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon sugar

½ teaspoon salt

¾ cup buttermilk

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).

Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a medium-sized bowl.

Pour in the buttermilk and stir until combined. Be careful not to overwork the batter.

Pour the melted butter into a 5x5-inch baking dish.

Place the dough on top of the butter and use a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon to evenly spread the dough out to the edges of the baking dish. Place the baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any possible spills.

Cut the unbaked dough into 4 squares.

Bake for 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Let the biscuits rest in the pan for at least 10 minutes so that the butter can be absorbed into the biscuits before cutting.
