Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal.

Pour in the buttermilk and mix until the dough comes together.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it is smooth.

Pat the dough out to a thickness of about 1 inch. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut the dough into circles and place them on a baking sheet.

Bake the biscuits for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown on the outside.

Serve the biscuits warm, with butter and your choice of toppings. Enjoy!
