Add 3 cups of all-purpose flour into a large bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon of fine sea salt to the flour and mix together.

Make a well in the flour mixture and add 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and 1 cup of cold water.

Mix the ingredients together until a dough forms, then use your hands to combine thoroughly.

Lightly knead the dough in the bowl for about 30 seconds until well mixed, then shape it into a ball.

Sprinkle flour on a clean surface, place the dough ball on top, and cut it into two pieces.

Shape each piece into a ball and cut each ball into six pieces, totaling 12 pieces of dough.

Shape each piece of dough into a ball, ensuring they are all the same size.

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with 1 teaspoon of sweet smoked Spanish paprika until well combined.

Brush the bottom of an 8-inch round baking pan with the olive oil and paprika mixture.

Place the dough pieces in the baking pan in a single layer, tightly packed together.

Brush the top of the dough pieces with the remaining olive oil and paprika mixture and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.

Preheat the oven to 210 degrees Celsius (410 degrees Fahrenheit).

Bake the biscuits for 22 to 23 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
