Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 ounces unsalted butter (very cold)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup whole milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar until well combined.
