Wet Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Milk

    Pour in the milk gradually, stirring gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Shape Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, reworking the dough as necessary to cut out a total of 6 biscuits.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with butter or jam.
