Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch baking dish.
  • Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients until a soft dough forms.
  • Knead gently on a floured surface until smooth.
  • Roll dough into a rectangle about 12×9 inches.
