In a large bowl, add all dry ingredients, whisk to incorporate fully.
Add butter chunks and flatten using palm of hands. They should resemble wide disks.
Make a well and add buttermilk. Dough will be sticky but keep going. To incorporate, squeeze dough together, do not knead.
When the dough comes together, add flour to the surface. Flatten to 1” thick and cut into four pieces. Stack the dough on top each other repeating four times. Using your hands each time the dough should be square.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and freeze for 15 mins.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a biscuit cutter or ring mold, form desired size of biscuits. Squeeze excess dough together to form other biscuits and flatten with a rolling pin as needed.
Brush with buttermilk on top or egg wash.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve and enjoy with a drizzle of maple syrup or some fruit jam of choice.
