Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cups whole milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Pulse a few times to mix the dry ingredients.
Step 3
Add the cold, cubed butter to the food processor. Pulse 8-10 times or until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter pieces.
Step 4
Slowly pour in the milk while pulsing the food processor. Stop as soon as the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently press it together into a 1-inch thick disk. Do not knead excessively.
Step 6
Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a floured glass to cut out biscuits. Re-roll the scraps as needed to make additional biscuits.
Step 7
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart for crisp edges or closer together for soft sides.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for the best flavor and texture!
