Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Stevia powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and stevia powder.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix together the whole milk and vanilla extract in a small bowl or measuring cup.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the milk-vanilla mixture. Stir gently with a spatula or fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle or circle.
Using a biscuit cutter or a floured glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden on top and cooked through.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Enjoy your sugar-free tea biscuits warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a cup of hot tea.
