Achieve perfect biscuits every time with this recipe for Fluffy No Knead Buttermilk Biscuits.

Y’all I had the biggest crisis on Thursday afternoon/Friday morning. If you stopped by during that time, you may have noticed that the site was down. It was a huge fiasco. I cried, and almost gave up on everything that I’ve put so much work into.
I used to praise Bluehost so much, it’s who I’ve been with since the beginning. However, they were of no help, and wanted more money to get my site back up.
Telling me I needed to upgrade, when I knew that that just wasn’t true. Needless to say that some awesome members that belong to the same advertising network as I do, gave me some awesome recommendations in our Facebook group.
I was able to switch hosts and move to Wpopt Friday morning. Charles got me up and running by Friday afternoon, and he moved my site while it was still down. (Amazing!)
He also helped out a little bit because there were some issues that arose Saturday night with creating posts. I sent him an email Saturday night before bed, and after another email to him Sunday morning, everything is back to running smooth. Huge shout out to Charles and Wpopt!
Ok, enough about the crisis….let’s talk biscuits...I get it - Not everyone wants to put in the effort to make fluffy homemade biscuits. I get that.
Some days I want to pop open a can too. I do, if I have Annie’s Homegrown on hand, but if not, I settle with this recipe for Fluffy No Knead Buttermilk Biscuits.
It’s almost as easy as opening a can. Without the scary “POP” of course.
These biscuits are made with the same ingredients in my Fluffy Homemade Buttermilk Biscuit recipe, only with these bad boys, you aren’t going to knead them at all.
As a matter of fact the only thing you’re going to do is toss together a few ingredients together in a bowl, drop that dough into a baking dish, and bake! For real? Yep.
When they come out of the oven, you’ll slice them up, and serve them hot with butter, jelly, or whatever you’d like. They are buttermilky, fluffy, and pure perfection. Everything you want from a biscuit.
My mother used to make something similar, but she would call it a hoe cake. But there are two different versions. Hoe cakes like Johnny Cakes, and then a hoe cake that you slice and serve. Mother used to make the slice and serve version.
This is the recipe that I throw together when we want biscuits, and I don’t have a can on hand, and I don’t feel like getting the counter all floury. If you love the southern buttermilk biscuit, you’re gonna love this recipe!

These look delicious. I've yet to master biscuits so this knead free recipe is right up my alley. I have some homemade peach preserves our neighbor gave us and they would pair well with some hot buttered biscuits.

Any type of biscuits go over really well in my household. They have to be from scratch and not from a mix or can. Buttermilk is always one of our favorites.

You're right, we all want homemade biscuits, but without the work. But the fact that they're no knead could possibly convince me!

I absolutely LOVE buttermilk biscuits. A local restaurant has them and use apple butter on top. It can be expensive to go there all the time, so it is really neat to find a recipe I can make at home!

Making these now, it's been 35 mns and the middle is still not done, there seems to be way to much butter, it's covering the top and boiling so much you can't see the bisquits, it smells good, hoping they turn out
