Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F and spray a cast iron skillet with non stick cooking spray. You can also line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, and baking powder and whisk until combined.
- Grate the cold butter and add into flour mixture and mix with hands until incorporated fully.
- Pour the milk in and mix with a fork or your hands until the dough forms. Add a tablespoon at a time of more of milk if the dough is a little dry.
- Place the dough on a lightly floured counter or cutting board and pat down until it is approximately 1 ½ inches thick.
- Use a biscuit cutter to cut biscuits and place them in the prepared cast iron skillet. (or lined baking sheet). Try not to twist when when pressing down or lifting the cutter.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter if desired.
Notes
- These biscuits store in an airtight container for 2-3 days at room temperature, or in the fridge for about 5 days.
- Freeze: Biscuits freeze wonderfully. You can freeze them before baking or after. To freeze uncooked biscuits, cut the biscuits out, place them on a parchment lined baking sheet and place the pan in the freezer for two hours until frozen. Then remove from freezer and place in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.
- Reheating: To reheat cooked biscuits, place them in the oven at 300° F for 3-5 minutes or until warm. You can also place in the microwave in 15-20 seconds.
- To cook the frozen biscuits, preheat oven to 400° F. Bake as you would fresh. Just add a few more minutes to the baking time. Be sure to watch them so they don't get too brown.
- How to make dairy free biscuits.
- Use any milk of choice. Full, 2% or 1% all work great. You can also make them dairy free by swapping the regular milk for the same amount oat milk, soy milk or almond milk and use a non-dairy butter instead.
