Popeyes Buttermilk Biscuits
By: Todd Wilbur

2 cups flour
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter, cold (1 stick)
½ cup buttermilk
¼ cup milk

To brush on top:
2 Tablespoons butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Mix together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl.

Slice cold butter into cubes and use a pastry knife or potato masher to cut butter into dry mixture until no large chunks of butter remain.

Add buttermilk and milk and stir with a spoon until dough forms. Roll out to ½ inch thick on floured surface.

Cut biscuits with a 3 inch biscuit cutter and arrange on a lightly greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 22-24 minutes or until tops begin to turn light brown. Remove biscuits from the oven and cool for a couple of minutes, then brush each biscuit top with melted butter.
