Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes
• 0.75 cups Whole milk, chilled
• 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• 0 Optional toppings (e.g., honey, jam, or cheese)

Directions

Step 1

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

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 bowl. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. It's okay for some small pea-sized chunks of butter to remain.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the chilled milk. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently mix until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough—it should be slightly shaggy and sticky.

Step 5

Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Gently pat the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in half, then in half again (this creates flaky layers). Pat it out again into a 1-inch-thick rectangle.

Step 6

Using a round biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll any scraps and cut out additional biscuits as needed.

Step 7

Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as honey, jam, or savory options like cheese.
