• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 4 tbsp salted butter plus more for brushing on top (see note)
• ¾ cup butter milk
• 1 tbsp hot honey plus more for serving

1. Preheat your oven to 415 degrees. If you don’t have buttermilk at home, begin by adding a tablespoon and a half of lemon juice to your milk and leaving it out for up to five minutes to create your homemade buttermilk.
2. Sift together your flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into your bowl adding in your cubed butter and using a pastry cutter or the paddle attachment in your kitchenaid to break down the butter pieces slightly or flatten them.
3. Create a well in your flour and butter mixture and pour in your buttermilk and hot honey keeping ¼ of your buttermilk on hand in case you need any extra splashes (see note).
4. Fold your mixture together until a shaggy dough forms.
5. Place your dough out onto a clean surface and flatten with your hands, folding in both of the sides like a letter and repeating the process.
6. Do this at least two times, and then flatten out into ¾ of an inch and use your biscuit cutter to take out your shapes. Remember not to twist as you pull your biscuit cutter up and just pull straight up and press straight down!
7. Place your biscuits on a lined parchment sheet, pressed up against one another. The closer they are the better they rise!
8. Brush your dough with additional butter and bake for 12-15 minutes or until your biscuits are lightly browned drizzle with hot honey. Enjoy!
