These EASY homemade biscuits are buttery, flakey, soft and so delicious!
The butter biscuits are so quick to make, and you can’t beat the flavor of freshly baked biscuits.
– all-purpose flour – granulated sugar – salt – cream of tartar – baking powder – unsalted butter
Cube your butter and place in the freezer while you prepare and measure the rest of the ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, salt, cream of tartar and baking powder for the flour mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together egg and half & half. Pour it into the dry ingredients and mix just until incorporated.
Lightly dust work space with flour and add the batter to the floured surface. Shape into a rectangle then fold one side into the center and repeat with the other side.
Add the biscuit to the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown. Once cooked, remove from the oven and brush the tops with the melted butter.
