Buttermilk Biscuit Breakfast Sandwich

Biscuits

6 tablespoons butter, cubed and chilled

2 cups flour

1 tablespoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 - 1 1/2 cups buttermilk

melted butter, for brushing

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Sift together dry ingredients. Cut in cold butter until small crumbs form. Do not overwork mixture, as it will melt the butter. 

Make a hole in the middle of the crumb mixture and pour in 1 cup of buttermilk. Stir together until mixture just comes together. Add more buttermilk if dough is too dry.

Pour dough onto a floured surface. Pat into a rectangle. Lightly fold dough onto itself 5 times and lightly press to 1 inch thickness. Cut biscuits and place on baking sheet. It is very important to not overwork the dough, otherwise it will become tough.

Brush biscuits with melted butter and bake 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
