Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the whole milk into the dry mixture and gently stir with a fork or spatula until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 3-4 times to bring it together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle.
Using a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass (about 2.5 inches in diameter), cut out biscuits. Press straight down without twisting for the best rise. Re-roll the scraps as needed and cut out additional biscuits.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, arranging them close together for soft sides or spaced apart for crispy edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy warm with butter, honey, or your favorite topping!
