Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, diced)
• 0.75 cups whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
• 2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar (for topping)

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 all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the diced cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it just until it comes together (avoid overworking to keep the biscuits tender).

Step 6

Pat the dough out to about 1-inch thickness and use a round biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits. Re-roll any scraps and repeat.

Step 7

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon sugar if desired.
