Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg (for egg wash, optional)
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt (for topping, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly pour in the milk while gently stirring with a fork or spatula until the dough starts to come together. Be careful not to over-mix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it just comes together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle.
Use a round biscuit cutter or a floured glass to cut out biscuits. Re-roll the scraps gently as needed to maximize the dough.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
If desired, whisk the egg with a tablespoon of milk or water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sea salt for a finishing touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm with butter or as a savory side!
