Servings 12
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ⅓ cup cold butter grated
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Grate the cold butter into the flour mixture.
- Using a fork, gently mix until the butter resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces throughout.
- Gradually stir in the milk, adding just enough until the dough comes together. The dough should still be slightly sticky and look a little dry.
- Using a medium cookie scoop, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
- Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey.
