Servings 6 Biscuits
Cost 9
Ingredients
- 2 cups white flour
- 3 tbl cold butter diced in small cubes
- 2 tbl fresh minced chives or green onions
- 1 tbl baking powder
- 1 tsp sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 3/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 6 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 1/4 cup cold buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- To the flour, add the diced butter and rub it into the flour until it resembles small peas.
- Then add the chives, baking powder, sugar, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper and stir to combine.
- Add shredded cheddar cheese and stir so it is coated with flour to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the cold buttermilk to form a soft dough. Make sure that you get the little flour bits from the bottom of the bowl combined. Don't overwork the dough.
- Spoon into 6 large biscuits on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 400 for 22-25 minutes. I would check them at the 20-minute mark and make sure the tops are not getting too brown.
