About Buttermilk biscuits
Buttermilk biscuits are a classic baked good originating from Southern United States cuisine, cherished for their tender, flaky texture and rich flavor. These biscuits are traditionally made with simple ingredients including all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, butter, and buttermilk. The buttermilk contributes to their signature tangy taste while reacting with leavening agents to create a light, airy crumb. Although they are a comforting staple, their nutritional profile often leans towards indulgent rather than health-conscious, as they can be high in saturated fat and refined carbohydrates due to the butter and white flour. However, they can provide energy and supply small amounts of protein and calcium, especially if paired with nutrient-rich additions like fruit preserves or a lean protein topping. Moderation is key to enjoying these flavorful baked goods as part of a balanced diet.
