Homemade biscuits
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 6 tablespoons butter, cold or frozen
- 1 cup milk vegan or regular. You can also use half heavy cream and half water.
- 1 teaspoon coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees in a large bowl. Combine flour, sugar, and salt using a whisk. Mix well.
- Next, grate the butter into the flour mixture using a cheese grater. Using your hands, mix well to create a crumbly mixture.
- Slowly pour in your milk and use your hands to mix everything until a ball of dough is formed. If the ball is too sticky, add extra flour. If the ball is too dry, add a touch more milk.
- Place the dough on a floured surface and gently knead the dough by pushing the dough away from you and then pulling it towards you. Do this about five times, and be careful not to over-knead the dough.
- Flatten the dough with your hands (Don't use a rolling pin). Flatten the dough until it is about one inch thick.
- Using a round cookie cutter or biscuit cutter, cut small circles into the dough and place them on a greased baking sheet. Ensure the dough circles are about 1/2 inches apart.
- Place the biscuits in the oven and bake full for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden.
- Add melted butter to serve. Enjoy!
