These fluffy yogurt biscuits are a delightful twist on a classic recipe, offering a tender texture and rich flavor.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before placing the biscuits inside for even baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Sift the dry ingredients together to ensure they are well combined and to aerate the flour.
Cut the butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Work quickly to keep the butter cold, which helps create flaky layers in the biscuits.
Gently stir in the yogurt until a sticky dough forms.
Avoid overmixing to prevent the biscuits from becoming tough.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it to a 1/2-inch thickness.
Use a light touch to maintain the dough's airy texture.
Cut the dough into rounds using a biscuit cutter and place them on a baking sheet.
Press straight down with the cutter without twisting to help the biscuits rise evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Keep an eye on the biscuits during the last few minutes to avoid overbaking.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings for the best experience.
