Golden, tender Fluffy Biscuits made from simple pantry ingredients. These biscuits bake up tall, buttery, and irresistibly soft—perfect with honey, jam, or gravy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3/4 cup whole milk (plus a splash if needed)
  • Honey, for drizzling (optional)
  • Butter, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in milk just until dough comes together. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat to 3/4-inch thickness. Fold once or twice for layers.
  6. Cut biscuits using a sharp cutter and place on the baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown on top.
  8. Brush with melted butter and serve warm with honey or jam.

Notes

  • Use cold butter for flaky, tender texture.
  • Don’t twist the cutter to allow biscuits to rise evenly.
  • Chill the dough briefly before baking for taller biscuits.
