Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version
  • 1 tbsp baking powder acts as a leavening agent
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold) margarine can be used as a dairy-free substitute
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese (finely grated) can swap with aged cheddar or Asiago
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced) or 1/2 tsp garlic powder if fresh isn't available
  • 1 cup whole milk buttermilk can be used for added tanginess

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • baking tray
  • Parchment Paper
  • whisk
  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder until evenly blended.
  3. Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Rub the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Fold in the finely grated Parmesan cheese and minced garlic until evenly distributed.
  5. Gradually pour in the whole milk while mixing gently until a soft dough forms, being careful not to overwork it.
  6. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface, pat it into a round disk about 1-inch thick, and cut into 6 wedges. Place the wedges on the baking tray.
  7. Bake for approximately 20 minutes until golden brown and rise beautifully.
