35 Minute Biscuits

Pillowy soft, buttery biscuits that are ready in 35 minutes--for that morning when you need home food, but not an early start.
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 6 Biscuits

Ingredients
  

  • 2 C All Purpose Flour Plus more for dusting
  • 1.5 TBSP Baking Powder
  • 1 TSP Salt
  • 5 TBSP Butter I like to use Kerrygold
  • 1 C Whole Milk For higher biscuits, sub buttermilk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F. Sift your dry ingredients together and cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or a fork until the mixture is crumb-like, then add the milk to the mixture.
  • Turn out the dough onto a well floured surface, sprinkling on a little flour on top until the dough is shaggy but not sticking to you. Form into a rough rectangle that's approximately one inch thick. Cut biscuits with a floured cup or pastry cutter (remember not to twist as you are cutting!).
  • Bake on a cookie sheet for 10- 15 minutes, checking every minute or so starting at minute 10 until they are golden brown. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
