Start by adding flour and butter into a bowl.

Add a little sugar to the flour and butter mixture.

Break down the butter into the flour until it resembles the consistency of cornmeal.

Make a well in the center of the mixture.

Pour buttermilk into the well.

Mix the ingredients together with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Transfer the mixture onto a floured fondant mat.

Pat the dough down to the desired thickness, keeping in mind that the biscuits will rise.

Grab a cast iron pan for baking.

Use a wine glass to cut out biscuits, twisting it in dry flour to prevent sticking.

Place the cut biscuits into the cast iron pan, placing them close together for soft sides.

Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F until they puff up and turn golden brown.
