🧈 Biscuits with Butter & Jam 😍

Ingredients:

For the Biscuits:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp baking soda
• 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed
• ¾ cup buttermilk
• 1 tbsp honey, optional

For Serving:

• 4 tbsp softened butter
• ½ cup strawberry, raspberry, or blackberry jam

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Pour in the buttermilk and honey, if using. Stir gently until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
5. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it to about ¾-inch thick. Fold the dough over itself 2–3 times for extra-flaky layers.
6. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter and place them close together on the baking sheet.
7. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.
8. Brush the hot biscuits with a little melted butter and let them cool for a few minutes.
9. Split each biscuit open and spread generously with softened butter and your favorite jam.
10. Serve warm with coffee, tea, or a cold glass of milk. 🧈🍓🍪✨
