Prep the Yeast: In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
Cut in Butter: Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Combine with Buttermilk: Stir in the buttermilk and the yeast mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Shape the Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently pat it to about 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
Bake: Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve: Enjoy your Angel Biscuits warm with butter, honey, or your favorite preserves.
