Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for savory)
- 0.25 cup jam or fruit preserves (optional, for sweet)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, diced butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly pour in the milk while stirring with a fork. Mix until the dough just comes together; do not overwork the dough.
If making cheesy biscuit bites, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese at this stage.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick.
Using a 1.5-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out small circles of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather and re-roll scraps of dough as needed.
If making sweet biscuit bites, use your thumb to create a small indentation in the center of each round and fill it with a dollop of jam or fruit preserves.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuit bites are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy as an appetizer, snack, or alongside your favorite meal!
