Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute the leavening agent and salt.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the dough starts to come together, being careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 6-8 times until it holds together. Pat or roll the dough into a circle about 1/2 inch thick.
Using a round biscuit cutter (or the rim of a glass), cut out biscuits and place them on an ungreased baking sheet. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut out additional biscuits until all the dough is used.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with your favorite toppings or alongside a main dish.
