🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh sage (minced)
• 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds

• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream (for brushing)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for garlic butter)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

3. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Stir in the minced sage and caraway seeds until evenly distributed.

5. Slowly pour in the milk while gently stirring with a fork. Mix just until the dough comes together; do not overmix.

6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4 to 5 times, just until it holds together.

7. Pat the dough into a 3/4-inch thick rectangle and use a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out rounds. Gather and re-roll scraps as needed.

8. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between them. Brush the tops lightly with heavy cream.

9. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

10. While the biscuits bake, prepare the garlic butter by melting the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes just until fragrant. Do not let the garlic brown.

11. Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Brush the warm biscuits generously with the garlic butter.

12. Optionally, sprinkle the biscuits with chopped fresh parsley for garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!
