Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.75 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Add the olive oil to the bowl and mix with a fork or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour in the milk gradually, stirring with a fork, until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Gently knead the dough 4-5 times to bring it together.
Pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thick circle or rectangle. Use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut out biscuits, reshaping and re-rolling the scraps as needed.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your quick and delicious olive oil biscuits warm!
