Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 3/4 cup milk

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your hands to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk.
5. Using a fork, gently mix the milk into the flour mixture until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together.
7. Roll the dough out to a 1-inch (2.5 cm) thickness and cut out rounds using a biscuit cutter or a glass.
8. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
10. Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on a wire rack before serving.
