- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup cold buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the cold buttermilk and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently fold it over 3-4 times to create layers.
- Roll the dough out to about 1-inch thickness and cut biscuits using a floured round cutter.

Notes
For extra flaky biscuits, use a sharp cutter without twisting when cutting the dough. Serve warm with butter, honey, or jam.
