Ted Lasso’s Biscuit Recipe

This scrumptious, buttery biscuit is similar to Scottish Shortbread, a surprisingly easy to make cookie. Rebecca, Ted’s boss, is obsessed with these biscuits and soon you will be too! Here is our version of Ted Lasso’s biscuit recipe!

Ted Lasso has been one of my favorite shows to watch lately. It’s very fun and refreshing, as it is light on the drama. Ever since becoming a mom, I can’t watch anything heavy, especially anything involving kids! Life is already complicated as it is 🙂 So Ted Lasso was perfect for me; it’s a feel-good, warm-hearted show. Kind of analogous to the delicious cookies Ted brings to Rebecca every morning! The only problem? The recipe is a secret. 

After some research (aka staring at the screen), I believe it’s probably something like Scottish Shortbread – a rather simple to make cookie that only involves three ingredients. Traditionally, the weight ratio of ingredients used in Scottish Shortbread is 1:1:1 (flour: butter: sugar). I tweaked the recipe slightly by reducing sugar & adding almond flour and vanilla to give it a bit of depth in flavor, which I know Rebecca would love! 

It is rich, crumbly, and melts in your mouth.  This is a perfect treat to have with a cup of tea or coffee in the morning, and pair it while you’re watching the show!

Here is our version of Ted Lasso’s biscuit recipe:

First, enjoy this 2-minute video we just made! 

Here are the instructions:

We need 8×8 square baking dishoffset spatula (regular spatula works but offset spatula makes it a lot easier!) and food processor. Both Aki and I have 4.5″ offset spatula and use it all the time.

Traditionally, Scottish Shortbread is made from a very dry dough consisting of just butter, flour, and sugar. For our recipe, we added almond flour and vanilla extract for additional depth in flavor. Here are the list of all ingredients. Pretty simple, right?

Salt makes everything taste better. So, for this recipe, we use unsalted butter + 1/4 tsp of salt. Only have salted butter? No problemo. 1 stick of salted butter = 1 stick of unsalted butter + 1/4 tsp salt, so you can just omit salt in case you only have salted butter (see details in the recipe).

*(Updated recipe on Oct. 19, 2020) Somehow, it tastes much better using unsalted butter + salt instead of just salted butter. We highly recommend using unsalted butter + salt for this recipe only if possible 😀

First, put flour and sugar in your food processor or blender and pulse to combine. Then, add cubed butter & vanilla and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Butter an 8×8 container, put the dough and spread evenly using offset spatula. What a handy tool!

Then, press firmly by hand. If the dough sticks to your hands, you can use parchment paper on the biscuit dough and press on the paper. If the dough is not pressed firm enough, it will crumble easily. At the end, you can use an offset spatula to flatten/smooth out the dough. The spatula is especially useful to make the dough on the edge flat! You’ll see it measures approx. 1/2-3/4 inch in thickness. That’s it! It will take just 5 minutes or less. 

Lastly, bake for 30-35 min at 350F until lightly browned. Before you cut & eat, you will have to wait a bit until it cools down or it will crumble easily. I know it’s hard to wait but be patient! I like to chill it in the fridge in summer time.

Our favorite ingredient & equipments to use (affiliate links):

  • 4.5″ offset spatula – This is really handy. We strongly recommend to have one or two! Amazon has the best deal!
  • 8×8 glass baking dish
  • Cooling rack – Here’s a basic cooling rack from our favorite baking brand Nordic Ware, but when we’re feeling fancy, we use our gold cooling rack.
  • Pink box – We used a box that was leftover as a prop, but we just made DIY Ted Lasso’s box printables! Free download!
  • Food processor
  • This almond flour is our favorite kind!
  • Since this recipe is so simple, choose a vanilla that you can highlight. This is one of my favorites, though I alternate between this vanilla and the Whole Food’s or Trader Joe’s vanilla, too. (Updates: 1.22.2021) We tried vanilla paste instead of vanilla extract and it was delicious!
  • Salt makes difference! I personally love to use this Japanese Coarse Sea Salt but it’s pricy on Amazon. We usually can find much better deals at Asian market. This Japanese sea salt seems to be more mildly salty compared to a regular salt and this is a great for cooking, baking and pickling. (My mom and grandma have been using this salt in Japan!) But if you cannot find them, an good alternative option is this! We also love this salt! You can also find this at Whole Foods!

Recipe Updates

(Oct. 19, 2020) I’ve been trying this Ted Lasso’s biscuit recipe so many times ever since I saw the final episode of Ted Lasso Season 1. I recently found that using unsalted butter + salt turned out much more delicious than just using salted butter. So, I updated the recipe card. Still optional to use salted butter but the taste of salt stands out much more when I used the combination of unsalted butter + salt even though it’s the same salt amount.

(Nov. 9,2020) 1. Butter Temperature – I’ve been making this biscuit using chilled butter in summer – early fall season and it worked perfectly fine since chilled butter gets soften during the process of mixing & pouring into the baking dish. However, I found out that for cooler weather (somewhere below 70F = 21C) using soften butter made a better result. So, I recommend to use chilled butter for warmer weather (summer-early fall, later spring) & soften butter for cooler weather (fall-winter-early spring).
2. The use of almond extract – I tested using almond extract instead of vanilla extract but the result was not that good. It just didn’t go well together even though I use almond flour. I recommend using vanilla extract/paste instead of almond extract!

(December 28, 2020) After making this so many times, we’ve decided we prefer using coarse salt in this recipe. The coarse salt has a more powerful flavor compared to the finer salt, and is more noticeable in the end result. Our absolute favorite salt is Japanese Sea Salt, which can be found here, but it’s pretty pricey on Amazon. We usually can find much better deals at Asian market, though. But if you cannot find them, an alternative option is this! We also love this salt for cooking, baking and pickling! as well! You can also find this brand at Whole Foods!

(January 9, 2021) We tested making this delicious biscuit using Stand Mixer instead of food processor! It worked! Just butter needs to be a little more soften instead of chilled in order to mix them smoothly. We also tried hand mixing and it worked; however, we think the texture was a bit different (more dense and less flaky when using stand mixer/hand kneading probably because the butter is soften.) but still tastes deeeelicious! Enjoy the instruction video we made below using Stand Mixer!

(January 22, 2021) We tried using vanilla paste instead of vanilla extract. It is DELICIOUS! We used Trader Joe’s Vanilla paste but we also recommend this brand, too! Now, we finally feel like…

Dang it! They’re the best batch yet.

I finally cracked the recipe!

    My curiosity for these biscuits peaked the very first time Ted gave them to his boss. As a hobby baker and professional eater, I had to try it. This recipe is super easy and results in a very buttery treat and excellent accompaniment to your coffee or tea. Thank you so much for sharing!

      Hi, Andi!! Oh, that’s a good question!! The texture might be slightly different if you use a stand mixture, since the butter won’t be as fine, but the end result should be somewhat similar! Especially in taste. We’ll try it in the next few weeks and update our post! Thanks for the idea. And remember “Barbecue Sauce!”

    Oh my goodness — these biscuits are wildly good!

    My wife and I enjoyed them tremendously while watching the last two episodes this evening. I figured they’d be good — they’re shortbread, after all: they really couldn’t be bad! In fact, they were quite possibly the best shortbread biscuits I’ve ever had.

    One tweak I added, inspired by that scene when we see Ted taking the biscuits out of the oven: I sprinkled them with brown sugar when taking them out, and we really loved that element. The way the flavors came together reminded my wife of pancakes (and who wouldn’t want pancake-flavored shortbread?!).

    (Also, for anyone using Diamond Crystal kosher salt — that’s what I’m using, so I doubled the amount of salt indicated by this recipe.)

    I made half the recipe, in a 5×7-inch Pyrex baking dish lined with parchment, and cut them into 12 batons. They won’t last long!

    Thank you again for a brilliant recipe!

    Hi fellow Ted Lasso fans! I just came across your awesome recipe and just have a couple of questions before I try this recipe tomorrow 🙂

    Is it better in a food processor or stand mixer? I know you’ve said in previous comments the flavour is the same but texture is different. Which one would you say makes the best version?

    Did you ever try the other commenters suggestion on adding brown sugar? Curious before I try it!

    Lastly, is it better to use sea salt or kosher salt?

    Thanks!

      Hi, Jenn!! Thanks for finding us!
      For us, we actually prefer using the food processor. If you use the food processor, the crumb is more fine and more flaky. If you use the stand mixer, it’s more dense. But flavor wise, both taste the same! We haven’t yet tried topping with brown sugar, but we need to add that to our to-do-list! I bet it’s amazing because anything with brown sugar adds depth to the end result! And we use sea salt, because we like the flavor. Let us know how it turns out! <3 We can't wait for season 2 of Ted Lasso! Cheers and thank you!

    These are delicious!! I don’t have a food processor or mixer, so I mixed with a wooden spoon first then with my hands to break down the butter more. I cooked for 35 minutes to get them a bit browner than the pics for my personal preference. The house smelled delicious! I was thinking I could add cocoa powder to make a chocolate version! I might have preferred a bit more salt.

If you do freeze them and you like to dust the finished product with sugar or powdered sugar, then do that after you pull them out of the freezer (not before).

    Oh my goodness, these were the best! My husband and I just finished watching the first season so when I saw this recipe and box DIY, I knew I had to surprise him with them on our anniversary. He was over the moon! The biscuits themselves are delicious. I did use a stand mixer on speed 2 and after patting them down in a 8×8 greased glass pan, they baked perfectly in 35 minutes. I also subbed almond meal for almond flour but really didn’t notice a difference in texture. I let them cool for a few hours and cut them as recommended. They fit the box exactly. So thankful for the recipe and craft box instructions to make our 18th anniversary extra special! Can’t wait for season 2, which releases on my 40th bday. Best birthday present ever!

    This is a perfect little recipe! The addition of almond flour makes them a little moist and rich, while not losing shortbread’s characteristic buttery crumble texture. Sometimes I add a little orange or lemon zest for a subtle variation. Easy to make, and always a crowd pleaser.

    I have been making shortbread due to my recent binge of “Ted Lasso” and this recipe is the hands down winner! It looks and tastes like Rebecca’s biscuits. Real Scottish shortbread is denser and crispier so this recipe hits the bullseye with its texture, flavors and look. I’m on the fence about the vanilla though. I saw the updates to this recipe and will try the vanilla paste. I think a more subtle approach is called for with vanilla. I used King Arthur Almond Flour, Challenge Unsalted butter and my absolute favorite salt “Maldon”. I completely agree with the authors’ recommendation to use unsalted butter. Something with the chemistry about unsalted butter and the ratios works better I think. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this recipe. Thank you so much Salt ladies!

    Whoa, Mama! YES to this recipe! Before trying this Ted Lasso recipe, I tried another one that was fine but didn’t wow me. I was intrigued by the use of almond flour in this recipe. Man, oh man. This shortbread has a wonderfully buttery and slightly chewy bite. I’m so glad I came across it. Thanks for this!

    This is one of the best recipes I’ve ever made, and I feel like a baking rockstar when I whip a batch of these babies out! My kids absolutely LOVE them, my friends request them, and anytime I have to bring a “treat” to a gathering… these are the most talked about. Thanks so much for bringing this to life and sharing with the world!

    What can I say that hasn’t already been said? This was by far the easiest to put together, so quickly, so few ingredients, so little effort for such delicious rewards. This is now my go to recipe for all things shortbread like.

    Even made, the little box that Ted gives Rebecca each time he gifts her with this delicious confection/cookie/bar/melt in your mouth goodness.

    This recipe is perfect!! I am making my third batch of these biscuits and they are DELICIOUS!! I love the coarse salt as it adds just a hit of saltiness with the buttery flavor. A WINNER recipe!

    Being dairy free, do you think coconut oil would work?

    I can’t say enough good things about this recipe! I have been sharing it with all of my friends. I love that it can easily be made gluten-free and no one knows. I have probably made these biscuits 10 times now since I found the recipe a few weeks ago and today I am using the recipe as a base for maple pecan bar.
    My husband and I also started watching Ted Lasso because of finding this recipe
