Ingredients:

• 270 g All-purpose flour or 2 cups loosely packed
• 3 g Salt or 1/2 teaspoon
• 85 g Unsalted butter or 6 tbsp
• 12.5 g Sugar or 1 tbsp
• 8 g Baking powder or 2 tsp
• 180 ml Milk or 3/4 cup

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Biscuits Dough
   1. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder using a whisk.
   2. Add cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, and distribute evenly in the flour.
   3. Gradually add cold milk, tossing and stirring with a fork until large lumps form and all flour is moistened.
2. Build the Flaky Layers
   1. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
   2. Gently shape the dough into a rough square, being careful not to over-handle.
   3. Cut the dough into 4 equal parts, stack them, and repeat the process to create flaky layers.
   4. Form a flat sheet approximately 1 inch thick.
3. Cut the Biscuits
   1. Use a biscuit cutter or wide-mouth glass jar to cut out biscuits.
   2. Stack and repeat with any remaining dough, forming a dough sheet.
   3. Place the cut biscuits on a cast iron skillet or baking tray.
4. Bake the Biscuits
   1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) for a cast iron skillet or 425°F (220°C) for a regular baking tray.
   2. Bake for around 14-16 minutes or until the biscuits turn golden brown on top.

Optional: After baking, apply melted butter on top for added softness.

Pro Tips:

Use cold butter for a flakier texture.
