15 grams granulated sugar

113 grams unsalted butter, melted
# Step-by-Step Directions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 232°C. Place the unsalted butter in an 8x8 or 9x9 cm baking dish and let it melt fully in the oven, then carefully remove the dish.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until thoroughly combined.
03 -
Pour the buttermilk into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or fork until just combined, keeping some lumps intact to prevent toughness.
04 -
Transfer the batter directly into the baking dish over the melted butter. Use a spatula to spread the dough evenly across the dish.
05 -
Lightly score the dough into 9 equal squares using a butter knife, which will serve as guides for portioning after baking.
06 -
Bake the biscuits for 25 to 30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and edges are crisp and buttery.
07 -
Allow biscuits to rest for 5 minutes before serving warm. Enjoy with honey, jam, or gravy as desired.
