- 2 cups (about 240g) self-rising flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon fine salt (optional)
- 1 ½ cups (360ml) room-temperature milk
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place one stick (½ cup or 113g) of unsalted butter directly into a 9×13 inch baking dish and put it in the preheating oven until melted. Swirl the melted butter to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
- In a large mixing bowl, measure out 2 cups (about 240g) of self-rising flour. Add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and, if desired, ½ teaspoon of fine salt. Whisk to combine the dry ingredients.
- Gradually pour in 1 ½ cups (360ml) of room-temperature milk into the dry mixture. Mix until just combined, avoiding overmixing to keep the dough soft and sticky.
- Pour the sticky dough into the prepared baking dish with the melted butter, spreading it evenly across the bottom without pressing down too hard.
- Use a sharp knife or bench scraper to gently score the dough into 12-15 equal squares, marking the individual biscuits without cutting all the way through.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.
- For an extra touch of buttery goodness, melt another tablespoon or two of butter and brush it over the tops of the hot biscuits after they come out of the oven.
- Let the biscuits cool in the pan for a few minutes before breaking them apart along the scored lines. Serve warm.
