Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, diced)
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Cinnamon sugar (for topping)

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, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, diced butter to the bowl, and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the milk and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir with a fork until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick circle.

Step 6

Use a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter or a round glass to cut out biscuits, gathering and re-rolling scraps as needed.

Step 7

Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Sprinkle the tops generously with cinnamon sugar.

Step 8

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on the edges and puffed up.

Step 9

Allow the biscuits to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
