Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped rosemary, thyme, and parsley to evenly distribute the herbs throughout the dough.
Pour in the milk and gently mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 4-5 times to bring the dough together, then pat into a circle about 1/2 inch thick.
Use a 2-3 inch round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits. Gather scraps and re-roll as necessary to use all the dough.
Arrange the biscuits in a tight circle on the prepared baking sheet to form a wreath shape, ensuring the biscuits are touching.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the egg wash.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the biscuits for added flavor and a golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the biscuit wreath from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before transferring it to a serving platter.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with additional fresh herbs. Enjoy your Herbed Biscuit Wreath as a stunning appetizer or side dish!
