• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 25 minutes

Ingrédients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tbsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

1 tbsp sugar

½ cup butter (cold and chopped)

¾ cup milk (or buttermilk, cold)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Add cold butter pieces and cut into the dry ingredients using a fork or hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Pour in milk and stir gently until a shaggy dough forms. Avoid overmixing.

Turn dough onto a floured surface. Fold it over 3–4 times gently to bring it together.

Pat or roll the dough to about 1-inch thick. Cut biscuits using a round cutter or glass, pressing straight down.

Place biscuits on baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.

Bake for 12–15 minutes until tops are golden. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
