  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 stick cold butter
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions:

  • In a large bowl, mix flour with salt, baking powder and sugar. Add the butter then rub it with your fingers until the mixture looks like fine crumbs.
  • Heat up the milk on a stove until warm, but not hot. Add the vanilla essence and lemon juice and set aside for a moment. Line the baking sheet with the silicone baking mat.
  • Add the milk mixture with the dry ingredients and mix quickly with hand or fork.
  • Scatter some flour on the surface and tip the dough out. Dredge the dough and your hand with a little more flour. Then fold the dough over 2 to 3 times. Don't overwork the dough.
