Time 50m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1 cup shredded mild Cheddar
1 cup buttermilk, plus more for brushing
2 thin slices black forest ham, roughly chopped (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Pulse the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and 1/2 cup of the Cheddar and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter remaining. Add the buttermilk and pulse a few times, until the dough just comes together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a work surface that's lightly dusted with flour, then pat into a 7-by-7-inch square that's about 1 inch thick. Scatter half of the ham and 1/4 cup of the Cheddar on half of the dough, then fold the other half of dough over like a book; gently pinch the edges to seal. Pat the dough out again into a 7-by-7-inch square, scatter the remaining ham and 1/4 cup of cheese on top and fold the dough over like a book. Press once more into a 7-by-7-inch square.
  • Use a sharp chef's knife to cut the dough into 12 even rectangular pieces. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops of each piece with additional buttermilk. Bake until the biscuits are puffed and well browned, 18 to 20 minutes.

Categories     Bread     Egg     Breakfast     Bake     Quick & Easy     Cheddar     Ham     Gourmet     Sugar Conscious

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

For the biscuits
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2/3 cup grated sharp Cheddar
2 tablespoons milk
Ham and Eggs
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 large eggs
2 slices of imported ham
sliced scallion for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the biscuits:
  • Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, and a pinch of salt, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Stir in the Cheddar and add the milk, stirring, to form a soft sticky dough. On a floured surface pat the dough out into a 6-inch square and cut out 4 rounds with a 2 3/4-inch round cutter dipped in flour. Put 2 of the rounds on top of the remaining 2 rounds, press them together gently, and bake the biscuits on a buttered baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 15 minutes, or until they are pale golden (Makes 2 large biscuits).
  • Making ham and eggs:
  • While the biscuits are baking, in a large skillet heat the butter over moderate heat, swirling the skillet, until it just begins to turn golden brown, slide the eggs carefully into the skillet, and cook them, basting them with the butter, until the yolks are just set and the whites are slightly crisp around the edges. Halve the biscuits horizontally, arrange a ham slice, folding it, on each lower half, and top it with an egg. Drizzle the butter over the eggs, sprinkle the eggs with the scallion, and top them with the upper biscuit halves. Serve the sandwiches hot.

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
2 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons instant yeast
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pats
1 cup milk, at room temperature
Cooking spray, to coat
1/4 cup heavy cream, for brushing on top
4 tablespoons unsalted melted butter, for brushing on top
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces (1/4 pound) country ham, sliced paper thin*
Sweet variation: Whipped cream and blackberry topping, recipe below
1 cup fresh blackberries
1/2 cup sugar
Whipped cream, to top

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the shortening and 1/4 cup butter pats until pea-size bits remain. Add the milk and gently stir until combined. The dough will be wet.
  • Transfer the dough to a well-floured surface and gently pat into a 9-inch round that is 1-inch thick. Cut the dough into 2-inch rounds using a cookie cutter. Transfer the rounds to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet that has been lightly coated with cooking spray. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour. Remove the towel and cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • Cook's Note: The longer the biscuits stay in the freezer, the lighter and fluffier they become. You can make ahead and just bake off a few as you need them.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the heavy cream and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the tops with the melted butter. Let cool slightly, then sprinkle the top with black pepper and slice open.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the unsalted butter in a small (6-inch) nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat until it begins to sizzle. Add one egg at a time, season top with salt and pepper and cook until the white is set, gently flip over and continue cooking for another minute or so. Flip so the top side is up. Place a few slices of ham on the bottom biscuit and top with the egg, place the other half of the biscuit on top and serve immediately.
  • *Cook's Note: It's American prosciutto .
  • Blackberry topping:
  • Macerate the berries with the sugar in a bowl for about 30 minutes. Put some of the berries on the bottom half of the biscuit. Add whipped cream and top with the other half of the biscuit.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flaky biscuits. If the butter is too warm, it will melt and the biscuits will be tough.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Let the biscuits rest before baking: This allows the gluten to relax and the biscuits to rise more evenly.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: This helps the biscuits to rise quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overcook the biscuits: Overcooked biscuits will be dry and crumbly. Bake the biscuits until they are just golden brown.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Biscuits are best served warm, right out of the oven.

Conclusion:

These cheddar biscuits with fried eggs, ham, and brown butter are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. The biscuits are flaky and buttery, the eggs are cooked perfectly, and the ham and brown butter add a savory touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
