Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold)
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional, for serving)
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 flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the bowl. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, gently work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
Pour in the milk and stir gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently 3 to 4 times until it forms a cohesive ball.
Step 6
Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits. Re-roll the scraps as needed to make more biscuits.
Step 7
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm with a drizzle of honey, butter, or your favorite jam.
