Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.75 cup Buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter 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, mix the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it two to three times to bring it together, then pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle.

Step 6

Using a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a drinking glass, cut out biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Gather and re-roll scraps as needed to cut out more biscuits.

Step 7

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden on the top and bottoms.

Step 8

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet. If desired, dust the tops with powdered sugar for a sweet finishing touch.

Step 9

Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey, and share with friends to spread love and joy!
