Homemade honey buttermilk biscuits have always been a favorite of mine. They are so delicious and moist! Not to mention that this recipe only has three ingredients and makes the perfect breakfast biscuits. Enough of the talking. Let’s make these delightful honey biscuits.
Ingredients for this biscuit recipe
Self-rising flour—I use this type of flour simply because it has a blend of hard and soft wheat and a few other factors that make for the perfect rise. No cornstarch chunks is also a plus when using self-rising flour.
Frozen butter: When you freeze butter, you prepare your taste buds for some of the flakiest biscuits.
Cold buttermilk: Chilling your buttermilk allows the biscuits to spread less quickly when you place them in the oven.
Honey- Adding honey to the top of your biscuits gives these buttermilk biscuits a delicious flavor.

Can you freeze buttermilk biscuits?
To freeze buttermilk biscuits, allow them to cool completely after baking. Once cooled, place the biscuits in an airtight container or freezer bag. Make sure to separate the biscuits with parchment paper or plastic wrap to prevent them from sticking together. Label the container with the date and contents, then place it in the freezer. Frozen buttermilk biscuits can be stored for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, thaw them at room temperature or reheat them in the oven.
