Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.75 cups milk (whole, 2%, or plant-based)
- 1 large egg (beaten)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch round or square baking dish.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Step 3
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and beaten egg until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The dough will be slightly sticky.
Step 6
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Let the biscuit bread cool in the dish for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm with butter, honey, or jam!
