Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp Lemon juice + 1 cup milk
  • 3 cups All purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 3/4 tbsp Cream of tartar
  • 3/4 cup Butter, frozen
  • 1 tbsp Butter, melted plus 1 tbsp Honey

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450℉.
  • In a small cup, combine lemon juice and milk. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes to develop.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cream of tartar.
  • Remove the butter from the freezer and cut into small pieces.
  • Using a pastry cutter, incorporate the butter into the flour mixture to create a sandy texture.
  • Pour the sour milk into the bowl and stir to combine all ingredients.
  • Drop the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
  • Roll the biscuit dough with a floured rolling pin about 3/4 to 1 inch thick.
  • Cut as many biscuits out of the rolled dough as possible and place in the preheated oven.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are browned and the biscuits have doubled in height.
  • Reroll any extra dough and continue cutting out biscuits until all the dough has been used.
  • Mix 1 tbsp of melted butter with 1 tbsp of honey in a small bowl.
  • Once the biscuits are finished baking, remove from the oven and brush honey butter on top of each biscuit.
  • Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving.
