Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup whole milk (or buttermilk)
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead a few times. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
- Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out the biscuits, pressing straight down (do not twist).
- Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, close together for soft sides or spaced apart for crispier sides.
- Brush the tops with melted butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Serve warm and enjoy the buttery goodness!
Notes
- Be sure to use cold butter to get that perfect flaky texture.
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of garlic powder or herbs into the dough.
- If you don’t have buttermilk, whole milk works perfectly fine, but for a richer taste, you can use buttermilk.
