Nguyên liệu

240 grams (2 cups) all-purpose flour

14 grams (1 tablespoon) baking powder

1 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt

113 grams (½ cup, 1 stick) unsalted butter, very cold and cut into small pieces

170-240 grams (¾- 1 cup) milk or buttermilk

Hướng dẫn

Preheat the oven to 450°F/230°C

In a large bowl, whisk together flour (240 grams/ 2 cups), baking powder (14 grams/ 1 tablespoon), and salt (1 ¼ teaspoons) together.

Add the pieces of cold butter (113 grams/ ½ cup) and cut into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter or fork until the consistency of coarse meal. If you want to add any cheeses or other add-ins you can stir them in here before adding the milk.

Add the smaller amount of the milk or buttermilk (170 grams/ ¾ cup) and stir just until combined. If the batter is very dry, add a little more milk until the consistency resembles a very thick batter. Do not over-mix. The batter will be quite lumpy.

Drop large mounds (about ¼ cup each, I like to use a 2 ounce cookie scoop) onto either a parchment lined baking sheet or buttered cast iron skillet. The mounds can be touching on the sides.

Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown.

Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt if desired.
