How to Make Purple Basil Parmesan Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh purple basil and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup milk and 1 large egg.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat the dough to a 1-inch thickness.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a sharp knife to cut out 12 biscuits.
- Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
