For the lightest, fluffiest biscuits, avoid overmixing the dough. A few streaks of flour are perfectly fine.
Cold ingredients are essential! Ensure your buttermilk and heavy cream are well-chilled before beginning.
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by whisking together 2 cups all-purpose flour with 1 tablespoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Feel free to add a touch of grated cheese, herbs, or spices to the dough for a savory twist.
