Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter, this is 1/2 of a standard block of butter
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cup buttermilk, see Step 3

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 230 C. Lightly grease a 8x8 baking dish with butter. Melt the butter and pour into the baking dish.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  • Pour in the buttermilk and stir until it forms a loose sticky dough. NOTE: If using regular milk, you may need to use less so start by adding 1 cup and then more as needed to make a sticky dough. Press dough into baking dish that has melted butter in it. You will probably need to use your hands to evenly press it in. There might be butter still coming up on top of the dough-that's fine.
  • Use a hot, sharp, knife to cut the dough into 9 squares. Bake for 10 minutes, rotate the pan 180 degrees and bake for an additional 10-15 or until starting to get golden brown on the top and spring back when touched. If at any point while baking the butter is bubbling and browning along the edge of the dish, just use a paper towel to dab it up.
  • Serve with jam, butter, gravy, etc.
