Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
Gradually pour in the milk and stir gently with a fork until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 5-6 times until it comes together. Avoid over-kneading as it can make the dough tough.
Step 6
Roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a round cutter (approximately 6 inches in diameter) to cut out circles of dough.
Step 7
Invert oven-safe bowls (metal or heatproof glass) onto the prepared baking sheet, and lightly grease the outside surface of the bowls with oil or butter to prevent sticking.
Step 8
Drape each dough circle over the inverted bowls, pressing down gently to mold the dough to the bowl’s shape. Trim any excess dough hanging off the edges.
Step 9
Whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the surface of the dough to give it a golden, shiny finish after baking.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuit bowls are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 11
Allow the bowls to cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the inverted oven-safe bowls. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 12
Fill the biscuit bowls with your favorite fillings, such as creamy soups, hearty chili, or even sweet fruit and whipped cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!
