Biscuits

Biscuit Mix

• 3c All Purpose Flour
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• 1.5 sticks butter (cold)

Put 1 cup flour and the baking powder in a food processor. Run for 5 seconds.

Cut the butter into 2 Tbsp chunks and it to the food processor.

Run food processor until the sticks of butter are completely broken up and the mix is like coarse sand.

Add the rest of the flour and mix until homogenous (10 - 20 seconds).

Divide into 100g portions and put in the fridge. Lasts for as long as butter lasts.

Game Day

• 100g of mix
• scant 1/4c milk

Preheat oven to 450 - 525 f (experiment).

Fold milk into mix until mix is a consistent gob of stuff. Mixing less makes a crumbly biscuit, mixing longer makes a firm biscuit.

Plop onto parchment on a cookie sheet. Shape the biscuit (wet a silicone spatula to minimize sticking).

Bake for 13 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Savory Biscuit: Put sage, rosemary, and onion powder in a coffee grinder. Whizz it up until it is powder, add it to the batch.

Scone-ish: Add dried cranberries, almond extract, vanilla extract, and splenda to the batch.
