Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
  • 0.75 cups milk
  • 1 large apple (peeled, cored, and finely chopped)
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 large egg (optional, for brushing)

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, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the finely chopped apple into the dry mixture and toss to distribute evenly.

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or your hands until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean work surface and turn the dough out onto it. Pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle.

Step 7

Use a biscuit cutter or a glass dipped in flour to cut out the biscuits. Re-roll the scraps as needed and cut out more biscuits.

Step 8

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

Step 9

If desired, beat one egg and brush it over the tops of the biscuits for a shiny, golden finish.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving warm.
