Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.75 cup Whole milk
• 2 tablespoons Melted butter (for brushing, optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to combine and aerate the dry ingredients.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with small, pea-sized bits of butter throughout.

Step 4

Gradually pour in the milk while stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula. Mix until the dough just comes together—avoid overworking it to keep the biscuits tender.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat or roll it out to about 3/4-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass (approximately 2.5 inches in diameter) to cut out biscuits. Gather any scraps, re-roll, and cut until all the dough is used.

Step 6

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

Step 7

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

Step 8

If desired, brush the tops of the hot biscuits with melted butter for extra flavor and shine.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy Deborah's Divine Dinner Biscuits with butter, jam, or alongside your favorite meal!
