 285 g All Purpose FlourEquals about 2 cups of flour
 10 g Sugar (white)Equals 2 teaspoons of sugar
 9 g Baking PowderEquals about 1 Tablespoon of baking powder
 2 g Baking SodaEquals 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda

Method
1

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium mixing bowl (all dry ingredients).

2

Make a well in the middle of the mixed dry ingredients and then pour in the buttermilk and then the butter.

3

Stir gently with a fork until the ingredients come together. Allow the dough to set for about 2-3 minutes to absorb the liquids, the dough will be easier to handle and not so sticky if you allow it to set a bit.

4

Place your biscuit dough on a floured surface, sprinkle a little flour on top and gently fold the dough a few times to bring it together.

5

Shape your dough into a rectangle about an inch thick.

6

Use your biscuit cutter 2-2.5" diameter and cut out biscuits. Push your leftover dough together, and cut more biscuits until the dough is all used.

7

You should have 6-8 biscuits depending upon how thick your dough is and how large your biscuit cutter is. You could optionally make four larger biscuits.

8

Place the biscuits on a baking sheet (no need to oil the sheet) and then brush melted butter on top of the biscuits. Bake in a pre-heated 450F/232C oven (425F/218C for convection oven). Bake for 10-12 minutes depending upon size. The biscuits are done when you separate the largest biscuit and the inside is baked through.
