• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
• 3/4 cup buttermilk

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
2. Mix dry ingredients, cut in butter until crumbly.
3. Stir in buttermilk until dough forms.
4. Roll out, cut into rounds, and place on the baking sheet.
5. Bake 12–15 minutes, until golden.
