Biscuit Ingredients

Method

Biscuit Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Milk

    Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Shape the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat it out to about 1-inch thickness.

  6. 6

    Cut Biscuits

    Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuits and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
