• 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold cubed butter. Add the buttermilk and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
