  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt.
  3. Work in the butter with your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and maple syrup. Add to the flour mixture and using a fork, mix until the flour is just absorbed.
  5. Drop twelve 2 tablespoon mounds of dough onto a buttered baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Place a dab of butter on the top of each biscuit.
