- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Melt one stick (1/2 cup) of unsalted butter and pour it directly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish, ensuring it coats the entire bottom evenly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to thoroughly combine.
- In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the whole milk and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or sturdy spatula until just combined. The dough will be shaggy, sticky, and soft.
- Transfer the dough into the prepared baking dish on top of the melted butter, and gently pat it out to fill the pan without pressing too hard.
- Use a sharp knife or bench scraper to cut the dough into 12-15 squares, cutting through the dough but not all the way through the melted butter.
- In a small bowl, mix together the remaining granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Liberally sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top of the biscuit dough.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the biscuits cool in the pan for about 5-10 minutes before serving warm.
