Biscuit Recipe

Biscuit Directions

1. 1

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

2. 2

   Mix Dry Ingredients

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

3. 3

   Cut in the Butter

   Cut the cold butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. 4

   Add Milk

   Pour in the milk and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

5. 5

   Shape the Dough

   Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together. Roll or pat the dough to about 1-inch thick.

6. 6

   Cut Biscuits

   Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out rounds of dough. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

7. 7

   Bake

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

8. 8

   Cool and Serve

   Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm.
