Fast and Easy Biscuits

I love these biscuits because they are simple to make and can be ready to devour in 20 minutes. They pair nicely with turkey chili or hamburger soup and also make a mean breakfast sandwich.

I always have the ingredients on hand, so I can easily whip a batch of biscuits on a random Tuesday.

These fast and easy biscuits are so flaky and soft. It’s the same dough I used for my mess-free sloppy joe pockets I shared with you a few months ago.

The biscuits are also freezer friendly, so you can totally double a batch and throw 1/2 in your freezer to go with one of your freezer meals or to defrost on a busy night when a can of soup is on the menu.

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons cold butter cubed
• 1 cup cold milk

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Grease a cookie sheet and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add in the cold butter and mix together with a fork until the flour forms little pea sized crumbles.
4. Slowly mix in the milk until a dough forms.
5. Knead 8-10 times and turn out onto a floured surface.
6. Roll the biscuit dough 1/4 inch thick and use the top of a glass (or cookie cutter) to cut out 2 inch rounds of dough.
7. Once you run out of cutting space, squish the biscuit dough back into a ball and roll out and cut again.
8. Bake on the greased cookie sheet for 12 minutes.
