Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Stevia powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and stevia powder.
Step 3
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
Mix together the whole milk and vanilla extract in a small bowl or measuring cup.
Step 5
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the milk-vanilla mixture. Stir gently with a spatula or fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle or circle.
Step 7
Using a biscuit cutter or a floured glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden on top and cooked through.
Step 9
Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Step 10
Enjoy your sugar-free tea biscuits warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a cup of hot tea.
