Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Add butter, and use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour until the pieces are even and about pea-size.
Stir in the beaten eggs until well combined.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups of buttermilk - the dough should now be sticky. If it is too dry, then add more buttermilk a tablespoon at a time, and mix after each addition.
Cover bowl, and refrigerate anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight.
