Fluffy Baked Butter Biscuits

Indulge in the comforting aroma and delicate texture of these homemade Fluffy Baked Butter Biscuits. Perfect as a delightful snack on their own or paired with your favorite spreads.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

2. Prepare the Dry Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until well combined.

3. Cut in the Butter
Add the chilled, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, blend the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Add the Milk
Gradually pour in 3/4 cup of milk, gently mixing with a fork until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

5. Form the Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly, about 5-6 times, or until the dough just comes together. Pat or roll the dough out to a 1/2-inch thickness.

6. Cut the Biscuits
Using a biscuit cutter or a round glass, cut out biscuits and place them on an ungreased baking sheet. Gather remaining dough scraps, reshape, and cut additional biscuits.

7. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

8. Serve
Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey.
