Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup eggnog
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

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 flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg until well combined.

Step 3

Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the eggnog, egg, and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix to ensure tender biscuits.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle.

Step 7

Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits. Re-roll the scraps as needed to cut out more biscuits.

Step 8

Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and puffed.

Step 10

Allow the biscuits to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before serving. These are best enjoyed warm with a smear of butter or a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top!
