Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper, or use a nonstick spray, and set aside.

MIXING THE DOUGH BY HAND:

  • In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk to combine the flour, baking powder and pepper. Add thyme, parsley and chives to flour mixture and blend until combined
  • Add the butter and blend it into the flour mixture until a crumbly texture forms. I used a pastry cutter, or you can use two forks, or even a food processor.
  • Slowly add in the milk and continue to stir with a wooden spoon, stirring until just combined. Do not over mix dough. 

MIXING THE DOUGH WITH A FOOD PROCESSOR:

  • If you prefer to use a food processor, add the flour, baking powder and black pepper into the processor bowl. Pulse to blend.
  • Add the butter and continue to pulse until crumbly. Add the herbs, pulse a few times, then slowly add the milk and pulse until well blended. Do not over mix dough.

FORM THE BISCUITS:

  • Using 2 spoons, drop the dough in balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave room between the biscuits as they will spread when they bake. 
  • Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the outside is slightly golden.
  • Serve warm, with butter, or try them with our herb butter!

Notes

Storage: Store the biscuits in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
