If you are out of buttermilk Here is a great alternative . By using Greek Yogurt you can still get those light and fluffy Biscuits
Pre-heat the oven to 400°.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat.
In a mixing bowl stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or a fork cut in the butter until you have pea-sized chunks. Be careful not to over cut in the butter. You want chunks to get the flakey layers.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the yogurt and the milk.
Using a fork, toss the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture. Stir until the mixture barely starts to come together.
Turn out onto a clean work surface and with your hands gather it into a ball, working gently to make sure most of the dough is moistened. The key here is to barely work the dough so if there are a few dry bits, that’s ok.
Pat the mixture into a I inch thick disk.
Using a 3-inch round cutter, cut as many biscuits as possible and then re pat out the scraps to cut a few more. After the first re-roll the biscuits won’t rise as high so try to only re-roll once. you should get 8 or 9.
Place the cut biscuits onto the lined baking tray.
Brush the cut biscuits with the melted butter.
Bake the biscuits for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
You can use salted butter in the recipe and decrease the salt just a bit. I used Almond milk but you can use whatever you have on hand.
