Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

Feel free to substitute whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor or almond milk for a dairy-free option! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
