Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 6 teaspoons honey
• 1 unit egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• 2 teaspoons turbinado sugar (optional, for sprinkling)

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, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Gradually pour in the milk, stirring gently with a fork until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and pat it out to about 1/2-inch thickness.

Step 6

Using a 2 to 2.5-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 12 rounds of dough, re-rolling scraps as needed.

Step 7

Place half of the rounds onto the prepared baking sheet. Spoon 1 teaspoon of honey into the center of each of these rounds, keeping the honey away from the edges.

Step 8

Top each honey-filled round with another dough round and gently press the edges together to seal.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg and, if desired, sprinkle with turbinado sugar for extra crunch.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

Step 11

Let the biscuits cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, with a surprise burst of honey in every bite!
