Ted Lasso Biscuit Recipe 🍪
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to 65 to 67ºF (18 to 19ºC) 🧈
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling 🍬
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🌿
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, or sea salt 🧂
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven
Set your oven rack to the middle position and heat to 325ºF (165ºC). Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring there’s a 1-inch overhang on each side for easy removal later. Set aside. 🔥
2️⃣ Make the Dough
In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the softened butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Start on low speed to combine, then increase to medium speed and mix until the mixture is light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing. Add the flour and mix on low until a crumbly, hydrated dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. 🍚
3️⃣ Form the Dough
Transfer the dough into the prepared baking pan. Lightly press it down to fill the pan evenly. To get a smooth surface, place a piece of plastic wrap on top of the dough and use the bottom of a spatula to flatten it out. 📏
4️⃣ Prick and Chill
Using a fork, lightly prick the surface of the dough about 36 times, evenly spacing the pricks. This will help the biscuits bake evenly. Cover the pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or if you’re in a hurry, freeze it for up to 15 minutes. ❄️
5️⃣ Bake
Bake in the preheated oven until the surface and edges are golden brown, about 30 to 35 minutes. Keep an eye on them as baking times can vary slightly. ⏳
6️⃣ Cut
Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. While the biscuits are still warm, use a sharp knife to cut them into rectangles of your desired size. For an extra touch of sweetness, sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the surface while the biscuits are still warm. 🔪
7️⃣ Cool
Allow the biscuits to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, carefully lift them out using the parchment paper overhang. If needed, re-slice the lines to separate the biscuits. For an authentic Ted Lasso touch, place the biscuits in a pink pastry box before serving. 🎁
