📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the butter turns a golden-brown color and gives off a nutty aroma. This process should take about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to let it burn beyond this point. Once browned, remove from heat immediately and transfer to a large mixing bowl to cool slightly.

3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

4

To the bowl with the cooled browned butter, add the sugar, egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.

5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

6

Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into small balls. Place them on the prepared baking tray, leaving about 2 inches of space between each biscuit.

7

Using the back of a fork, gently press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly for even baking.

8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the biscuits are set.

9

Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

10

Serve your burnt butter biscuits with tea or coffee, or enjoy them as a standalone treat!
