Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cups milk (whole or 2%)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (minced)
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (chopped)
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 flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped parsley, chives, and thyme leaves until evenly distributed.
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring gently with a fork or wooden spoon just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a spoon or large cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on the tops and edges.
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with butter or your favorite spread.
