In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt to remove any lumps.
Next, use a fork or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is incorporated and the size of small peas.
Pour the buttermilk into the flour and butter mixture and stir until the mixture is combined and no excess flour remains.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a large square.
Fold the dough over onto itself and use a rolling pin to flatten it out slightly.
Repeat this two more times and then flatten the dough out to one inch thick
Using a circle biscuit cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 biscuits. If needed, gently push the scraps back together to cut out the remaining biscuits.
Place the cut biscuits onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer to chill for 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400˚ while the biscuits are chilling and then bake for 16-18 minutes until golden brown.
