Method
Biscuit Directions
- 1
Prepare the Biscuit Dough
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt together until well combined.

Incorporate Butter
Cut the unsalted butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- 3
Add Milk
Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. The dough should be soft but not sticky.

Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Cut into round biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass.

Bake the Biscuits
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
