Quick Biscuits

Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
– 3/4 cup milk

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Add the cold butter pieces to the dry ingredients. Using either a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Pour the milk into the bowl and stir everything together until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough biscuits.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together. Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick.
6. Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out biscuits from the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are touching for soft edges.
7. Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown on top.
8. Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
9. Enjoy your Quick Biscuits warm with a pat of butter and your favorite jam or honey!
