Homemade Honey Butter Biscuits
Equipment
- 1 Large Mixing Bowl
- 1 Stand or Hand Mixer
- 1 Large Baking Sheet or Mat
- 1 Mixing Spoon
- 1 Biscuit Cutter
- 1 Pastry Brush
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 5 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3/4 cup hardened butter, diced up
- 1/2 cup granulated honey powder
- 1 cup milk
- extra honey and melted butter for drizzle
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cream of tartar. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Add the diced butter to the dry mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut the butter into pea-sized pieces. This will create a flaky texture in your biscuits.
- Pour in the milk and gently stir until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix; a slightly lumpy dough is just what we're looking for.
- Sprinkle granulated honey powder over the dough and fold it in gently until it is evenly distributed throughout.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently for a minute or two until it becomes smooth.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 2 inches thick, then use a biscuit cutter to cut out individual biscuits. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
- Once they come out of the oven, brush them each with the honey butter blend and serve.
