Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
  • 0.75 cup Whole milk (cold)

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, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Work quickly to keep the butter cold.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the cold milk. Gently stir with a fork or spatula until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 2-3 times to bring it together. Pat the dough out into a 1-inch thick rectangle.

Step 6

Using a floured biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out biscuits by pressing straight down without twisting. Gather the scraps, re-pat the dough, and cut out additional biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 7

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart for crisp sides or touching for soft sides.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet for a minute or two. Serve warm with butter, jam, or as a side to your favorite dish.
