Instructions (5 steps)

01Preheat the oven to 450 ° F.
02To melt the butter, place the butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet, and place the skillet in the oven as it preheats. About 3-4 minutes should melt the butter just fine. Don’t forget, the butter will continue to melt after you take the skillet out because the pan is hot.
03In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the buttermilk to the dry ingredients in the bowl, and mix until a loose sticky batter forms, and all ingredients are combined.
04Pour batter on top of the melted butter in the skillet. Pre-cut dough into wedges, if desired, by running a knife through the batter.
