- Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper.
- Cut in butter a piece at a time until mixture looks like large crumbs.

- Do not over mix.
- Lightly flour a large work surface. Turn out the dough and flatten it to 1 in thickness.
- Cut out rounds with a floured 2 inch round cutter. Keep spacing as close together as possible. Put the rounds on a baking sheet.

- Do not over mix.
- Brush tops of biscuits with melted butter.
- Bake until they look golden brown,. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Rotate the sheet after about 10 minutes.
