Ingredients
  

For the Biscuits:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 250 g unsalted butter (one stick), very cold
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Pastry Cutter or Fork
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Rolling Pin

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sea salt until well combined.
  3. Step 3: Using a pastry cutter or fork, add the very cold butter to the flour mixture. Cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Step 4: Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the whole milk and honey. Gently stir until the dough just comes together.
  5. Step 5: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll it out to about ¾-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out the biscuits.
  6. Step 6: Place the cut biscuits on the prepared baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Step 7: Once baked, let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite toppings!

Notes

  • Let the biscuits cool slightly before serving for best texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze unbaked biscuits for later; bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
