Ingredients

2 1/2 cups flour
2 cups buttermilk
1 stick butter
4 tsp baking powder
4 tsp sugar
2 tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
In a medium sized bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Add in buttermilk, mix thoroughly until a moist dough is formed.
Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Pour it into an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish (one that is deep enough to prevent the butter from spilling out after adding biscuit dough).
Place the dough in the pan on top of the melted butter. Use a spatula to carefully spread it evenly across the pan until it touches the sides.
Cut the dough into nine even-sized pieces.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Serve with jelly, jam, or just plain. Enjoy!
