Method
Biscuits Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that the biscuits will bake evenly and rise nicely.
- 2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
- 3
Cut in Butter
Add 0.5 cups of cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- 4
Add Milk
Pour in 0.75 cups of milk gradually, stirring until the mixture just comes together. Do not overmix; it should be slightly lumpy.
- 5
Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it a few times to bring it together, then pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass.
- 6
Bake the Biscuits
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
