Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more, to taste, for dusting a work surface
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 10 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes and frozen
  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk, cold

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Step 2 -In a large bowl, combine 4 cups of the flour, the salt, the baking powder, and the baking soda.

Step 3 -Add the butter cubes to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter to cut them in until the mixture forms the consistency of small peas.

Step 4 -Create a well in the flour mixture and pour the buttermilk into it.

Step 5 -Mix the dough with a spoon or fork until it just holds together.

Step 6 -Dust the work surface with the extra flour and turn the dough out onto it.

Step 7 -Form the dough into a rectangle, then fold 1/3 of its sides to the center to create 3 layers.

Step 9 -Bake the bread until it is cooked through and the top is brown, about 15-18 minutes.

Step 10 -Serve.
