Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar

- Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl and whisk until well mixed.
- Add the cubed, chilled butter to the flour mixture and cut it in until it resembles coarse crumbs.
