Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.75 cups Milk (whole or 2%)
• 1 unit Egg, beaten (for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

Step 3

Add the chilled, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese evenly.

Step 5

Gradually add the milk, stirring with a fork or spatula until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 3-4 times to bring it together. Pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.

Step 7

Use a round biscuit cutter (or a glass) to cut out individual biscuits. Gather and re-roll scraps as needed to use all the dough.

Step 8

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg to achieve a golden-brown finish.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and golden.

Step 11

Cool slightly on a wire rack and serve warm, or at room temperature. Enjoy!
