Zubereitung von Baking Powder Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 4 teaspoons baking powder. Ensure the baking powder is fresh for optimal results.
- Cut in 1 tablespoon (14g) of chilled butter or shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add ¾ cup (177ml) of milk (or a mixture of ½ cup milk and ¼ cup water), mixing until a stiff dough forms. Do not overmix!
- Lightly flour a clean surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and gently pat it to a ½-inch thickness.
- Use a biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out biscuits. Reroll scraps as needed.
- Place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Check for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the center.
