Classic Fluffy Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 3/4 cup cold milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and allow it to preheat.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. Incorporate Butter: Add the cold butter pieces to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Mix in Milk: Gradually pour in the cold milk, stirring just until the dough forms. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
  5. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it holds together.
  6. Shape the Biscuits: Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Use a biscuit cutter or a round glass to cut out the biscuits. Gather the remaining scraps, re-roll, and cut until all the dough is used.
  7. Bake: Arrange the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  8. Serve: Let the biscuits cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter, jam, or your preferred topping.

Enjoy your homemade fluffy biscuits!
