Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C), setting the stage for these golden delights.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt, ensuring the dry ingredients are well combined.
Pour in the buttermilk and stir everything together until a moist dough forms, being mindful not to overmix to maintain that tender biscuit texture.
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe dish, then pour it into an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish. Opt for a dish that’s deep enough to contain the butter without spilling over during baking.
Gently place the dough over the melted butter in the pan. With a spatula, evenly spread the dough, ensuring it reaches the sides of the pan and is fully immersed in the buttery goodness.
Before baking, slice the dough into 9 roughly equal squares. This step ensures that each biscuit is surrounded by butter, enhancing the flavor and texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are beautifully golden brown on top.
