Cheddar & Chive Biscuits
There’s nothing like a good biscuit. Until you add cheese! These are an easy upgrade to biscuits making them a delicious accompaniment to pretty much…
Ingredients
- 2 c self rising flour
- 1 T baking powder
- 1 t salt
- ½ cup butter
- 1 c buttermilk
- 1 c shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 T chopped chives
Directions
- 1.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- 2.
Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter or a fork, or just use your fingers. Mix until mixture is like pebbles.
- 3.
Slowly pour in cold buttermilk. Stir to combine.
- 4.
Add the cheddar cheese and chives and stir to combine. Dough will be sticky, so be sure to use a floured surface when you empty it from the bowl to knead.
- 5.
Knead dough 4– 6 times. Be careful not to over knead the dough, so the biscuits stay light and fluffy. Spread the dough out about ¾ inch thick and cut biscuits.
- 6.
Place cut biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet and place in freezer while preheating oven to 425 degrees F, 10–15 minutes.
- 7.
When oven reaches 425 degrees, remove biscuits from freezer and top with melted butter. Bake in the oven for 15 – 18 minutes.
- 8.
When the biscuits come out of the oven, immediately brush them with melted butter on them.
