Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick cold salted butter, shredded (like cheese)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons raw honey
Pretzel Topping
- 3 tablespoons hot water
- 1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 egg yolk, beaten, with 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt or pretzel salt
Whipped Honey Butter
- 6 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
Instructions
- 1. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using your hands, mix in 1 stick of shredded butter. Pour over the milk and add the honey. Mix until just combined.2. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Pat into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Fold one side into the center, then the other side on top. Like a letter. Turn the dough horizontally. Flatten into a rectangle again. Repeat the folding. Turn the dough horizontally one more time. Flatten into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle. Wrap the dough and freeze it for 15 minutes to allow it to rest.3. Preheat the oven to 425° F. 4. Mix the hot water and baking soda. Brush it onto the entire top surface of the dough. 5. Cut dough into biscuits using a floured biscuit cutter (around 2 1/4 inches) or cut into 10 squares. Do not twist the cutter when cutting. Re-roll the remaining dough and cut more circles. Arrange the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with salt.6. Freeze the biscuits for another 15 or 20 minutes. Then bake until golden brown, 20-22 minutes.7. Meanwhile, whip the butter and honey together until creamy. This is easiest to do with an electric mixer. Serve the biscuits warm with honey butter.
