Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250g) All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) Unsalted Butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 cup (240ml) Whole Milk
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter for brushing

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to aerate the dry base.
  3. Cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or fork until it resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized chunks remaining.
  4. Pour in the whole milk and stir with a spoon just until the flour is moistened. Do not overmix; the dough should be shaggy and thick.
  5. Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, drop 12 mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Remove from the oven and brush immediately with melted butter.
