Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 0.75 cup low-sodium buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 cup no-sodium baking mix
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
Step 3
Add the chilled and cubed unsalted butter into the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the low-sodium buttermilk and honey, stirring until completely mixed.
Step 5
Make a well in the center of the flour and butter mixture, then pour in the buttermilk mixture.
Step 6
Gently fold the mix with a spatula until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overwork the dough to keep the biscuits tender.
Step 7
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 3/4 inch thick.
Step 8
Using a floured biscuit cutter, cut out the biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each biscuit.
Step 9
Gather any remaining dough pieces, gently reform them, and cut more biscuits until all dough is used.
Step 10
Brush the tops of the biscuits with a bit of buttermilk for a golden finish.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Step 12
Allow the biscuits to cool on a rack for a few minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your low sodium KFC style buttermilk biscuits!
