Steps to make Flaky, Buttery Homemade Biscuits:
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt. If using sugar, add it here too.
- Measure out butter and cut into small pieces. Add to the flour in bowl.
- Use fingers to squish butter into the flour, until it forms about pea-size chunks (the chunks are important!).
- Add milk and lightly mix in until the dough just begins to come together. You want the chunks of butter to stay together for the most part.
- Remove dough from bowl and form into a fat rectangle. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- After chilled, unwrap dough and dust with flour. Roll out to about 3 times the size. If it starts to stick just dust with a little more flour.
- Fold dough in three and roll out again.
- After rolling out the second time, fold in three again, re-wrap with plastic and chill in fridge for another hour.
- Remove from refrigerator and repeat the roll-out, fold, roll-out, fold process. You can now roll them out to cut and bake OR if you want even MORE flaky layers, refrigerate for an additional hour, then roll-fold, roll-fold one last time.
- After your last rolling and folding, you can roll out to cut. Roll dough out so it's 1/2 inch or 12mm thick. Cut into 4-6 squares with a knife, or cut out rounds with the rime of a glass, etc. (I made a little extra so the pictures shows more)
- Have your oven preheated to 400°F/200°C. Bake for 20-30 minutes until tops are golden brown. (Mine only took 20 minutes so keep an eye on them!)
