How to Make Barbara Pratt's Tea Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the milk, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick circle.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter (or a knife) to cut out biscuits. Reroll scraps and cut out more biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm with your favorite tea and spread.
