Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) to ensure it is hot enough to bake the biscuits properly.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of sugar until well combined.
Cut in the Butter
Add 0.5 cups of cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Combining Ingredients
Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Pat it into a 1-inch thick slab. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass, then place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Baking
Bake the Biscuits
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Cool and Serve
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm.
