Prepare the Dough:

• Start by adding the self-rising four to a large mixing bowl. Make sure the bowl is big enough to allow room for mixing by hand.
• Create a well in the center of the flour and pour in the buttermilk.
• Begin mixing with a spoon or go straight in with your hands. Combine until the dough becomes shaggy and slightly sticky.

Knead the Dough:

• Lightly flour your work surface and transfer the dough from the bowl.
• Knead the dough gently, folding and pressing until it becomes smoother and less sticky.

Shape the Biscuits:

• Flatten the dough to a thickness of 1 to 1¼ inches using your hands or a rolling pin.
• Use a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut until all the dough is used.

Preheat the Oven:

• Preheat your oven to 425°

Baking Options:

Cast Iron Skillet Method

• Place 1 tablespoon of butter in a cast iron skillet and put the skillet in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes to melt the butter and heat the skillet.
• Carefully arrange the biscuits in the hot skillet and bake for 14-16 mintues, or until golden brown.

Cookie Sheet Method

• Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
• Place the biscuits on the prepared sheet, leaving a bit of space between them, and bake for 14-16 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Serve:

• Enjoy the biscuits warm, straight out of the oven. Serve them with butter, honey, or your favorite jam or jelly.
