How to make Butter Swim Biscuits
- Preheat oven at 450 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, sift all the dry ingredients together – 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of baking powder. Sifting help remove all the lumps out on your mixture, as well as the dry pockets in your biscuits
- Create a hole in the middle of your dry mixture and pour in 2 cups of buttermilk. If the consistency is too wet, add in more flour. If it’s a bit dry, on the other hand, put more buttermilk. Set aside.
- Get an 8x8 inch baking dish and put 1 stick of unsalted butter. Melt the butter on a microwave oven.
- Once done, spread the batter evenly on top. Pre-cut 9 squares on the batter using a knife.
- Bake it in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until it appears golden brown.
- Brush some melted butter on top to add moisture.
