Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Country Crock® Spread
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 450°F (232°C) to ensure it is hot enough to bake the biscuits to a golden, flaky perfection.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda to evenly distribute the leavening agents and salt throughout the flour.
  3. Cut in the Country Crock Spread: Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the Country Crock® Spread into the flour mixture until the texture resembles coarse crumbs, ensuring that the fat is well incorporated for flaky layers.
  4. Add Buttermilk: Gradually drizzle in the buttermilk while stirring until the dough is just moistened; be careful not to overmix to maintain biscuit tenderness.
  5. Shape the Dough: Lightly flour a board and gently press the dough into an 8-inch round shape without overworking it, which helps keep the biscuits tender.
  6. Cut Biscuits: Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut out 6 biscuits from the dough round, then place them on an ungreased baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
  7. Bake Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the biscuits turn lightly golden on top, signaling they are cooked through and flaky.

Notes

  • Handle the dough gently to ensure tender, flaky biscuits—overmixing can make them tough.
  • Using cold Country Crock® Spread helps create flaky layers in the biscuits.
  • Biscuits are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven but can be reheated briefly in the oven for later use.
  • For a richer flavor, brush tops with melted butter immediately after baking.
  • Unbuttered baking sheets work well, but if desired, you can line with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
