Method

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather your equipment: a mixing bowl, an 8x8 casserole dish, and a whisk.
Combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk until well combined.
Gently pour in the buttermilk and fold the mixture until just combined. The dough should be slightly sticky.
Melt the butter and pour it into the casserole dish, ensuring an even coating.
Spoon the biscuit dough over the melted butter, spreading it evenly.
Cut the dough into 3 rows of squares using a butter knife.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-27 minutes, until golden brown.
Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
