Method
Biscuit Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it's hot enough to bake the biscuits.

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. Whisk together until well blended.

Cut in Butter
Add 0.5 cup of cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Milk
Pour in 0.75 cups of milk gradually, mixing gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Shape Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently about 4-5 times. Pat the dough to a thickness of about 1-inch and cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter.

Bake Biscuits
Place the biscuit rounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
