Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in sugar and make a well in the center. Pour in the milk and mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently. Roll it out to about 1-inch thick.
Cut into rounds using a cookie cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops with beaten egg and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
