About Buttermilk biscuit

Buttermilk biscuits are a classic staple of Southern cuisine, known for their soft, flaky texture and rich, buttery flavor. Traditionally made with ingredients like flour, buttermilk, baking powder, butter, and a pinch of salt, these biscuits are often served alongside hearty meals or enjoyed on their own. The buttermilk adds a tangy flavor while helping to create a tender crumb. While buttermilk biscuits provide some nutritional value, including small amounts of protein and calcium, they are typically high in refined carbohydrates and saturated fat, particularly when prepared with butter or shortening. To make a healthier version, swapping in whole-grain flour or using plant-based fats can slightly improve their nutritional profile. These biscuits are beloved for their comforting taste and are a versatile addition to breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
