Ted Lasso’s Biscuit Recipe | A Simple Homemade Treat

I first tried making Ted Lasso’s famous biscuits out of curiosity, just to see what all the fuss was about. The first batch disappeared within minutes. They’re buttery, crisp on the edges, and melt like sugar clouds when you bite into them. What makes them special isn’t just the taste, it’s how simple they are. The result is as good as anything you'd find in a bakery, and it only takes a few ingredients.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup 225g unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup 100g granulated sugar
  • 2 cups 240g all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract optional, but worth it.

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a small baking dish (around 8x8 inches) with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until smooth and creamy. It should look pale and fluffy. This step gives you that signature melt-in-the-mouth feel.
  3. Add vanilla extract if using, then slowly add the flour and salt. Mix until the dough just comes together. Don’t overmix. It should be soft but not sticky.
  4. Press the dough evenly into your prepared pan using your fingers or the back of a spoon. Smooth the surface gently.
  5. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the top is lightly golden and the edges are set.
  6. Let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then cut into biscuit bars while still warm. Leave them to cool completely before serving so they firm up nicely.

Notes

  • These biscuits taste even better the next day once the buttery flavour has settled.
  • You can swap granulated sugar for caster sugar for a finer crumb.
  • Don’t skip cooling it. Keep the texture crisp but tender.
