Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
  • 0.75 cups Whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted, for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.

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 flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to gently fold the ingredients together until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Lightly flour your hands and pinch off small portions of the dough, rolling each into balls roughly the size of a ping pong ball. Place the balls evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Remove the biscuit balls from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter. Let them cool slightly before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy! These biscuit balls pair beautifully with butter, jam, honey, or even gravy.
