Biscuits Like Grandmas But Lower-fat Recipe

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together well.
3. Add the butter, and, using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add the milk and stir just until dough comes together; it will be sticky.
5. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface, and, with floured fingers, pat dough to a 1-inch thickness. Use a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit or cookie cutter to cut the biscuits, cutting as close as possible so there are very few scraps.
6. Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
7. Remove from oven; cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
