Method

Biscuit Preparation

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it is hot enough for baking the biscuits.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to ensure the leavening agent is evenly distributed.

3

Cut in Butter

Add 0.5 cups of unsalted butter (cold and cubed) to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4

Add Milk and Sugar

Pour in 0.75 cups of milk and add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the mixture. Stir until the dough just comes together, being careful not to overmix.

5

Shape the Dough

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

6

Cut Out Biscuits

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

7

Bake the Biscuits

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

Prepare for Serving

Once the biscuits are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on a wire rack.

Add Butter and Toppings

While still warm, slice the biscuits in half. Spread some butter (about 0.25 cups or as desired) on each half. You can also add jam, marmalade, or honey according to your taste.

10

Serve Warm

Serve the biscuits warm with your choice of toppings for a delicious breakfast or snack.
