With no rolling or biscuit cutter required, these Butter Dip Biscuits are a cinch to make! Serve them alongside your favorite meals when you need an easy and delicious side dish.
Place butter in an 8x8-inch baking dish. Place the baking dish in the oven to melt the butter while preparing the biscuit dough.
Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt with a whisk or fork. Add the buttermilk and stir with a spatula until a batter forms. It will be sticky.
Remove the baking dish from the oven. Pour the biscuit batter over the top of the butter, spreading it into the pan with a spatula. It’s okay if some of the butter runs over the batter. Using a sharp knife, cut the biscuits into 9 squares.
Bake for 22-25 minutes or until the biscuits are cooked through and golden brown.
Notes
If you use unsalted butter in this recipe, increase the salt to 1/2 teaspoon.
For each cup of buttermilk, you can use 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice plus enough milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes. Measure out what you need and proceed with the recipe.
