Description

Directions

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees and add flour, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl.
• Cut cold butter into flour using a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Stir in milk until dough comes together.
• Add in extra ingredients like bacon, cheese, etc if desired.
• Pat out biscuits to ¾ inch thickness and cut with a 2 inch circle cutter. Pressing straight down when you cut will help the biscuits rise better.
• Place biscuits on a sheet pan with the sides touching and refrigerate for 20 minutes before baking.*
• Bake at 450 degrees for 10-14 minutes or until biscuits are baked through and golden brown on top.
