Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup buttermilk, plus extra for brushing
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
How to Make Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits with Raspberry Sauce
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the buttermilk and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead the dough 3-4 times, then pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
- Using a biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits from the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather and re-pat any scraps to cut out additional biscuits.
- Brush the tops of the biscuits with a little extra buttermilk for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
- While the biscuits are baking, prepare the raspberry sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir gently and cook until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Drizzle with the fresh raspberry sauce and enjoy!
