Yield Makes 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
6 oz Cheddar, coarsely grated (1 1/2 cups)
3 scallions, finely chopped
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl, then blend in butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in Cheddar and scallions. Add buttermilk and stir until just combined.
  • Drop dough in 12 equal mounds about 2 inches apart onto a buttered large baking sheet. Bake in middle of oven until golden, 18 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter will help to create flaky biscuits. If you don't have time to chill the butter, you can freeze it for 15 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Drop the biscuits onto the baking sheet: Don't roll out the dough and cut it into shapes. Simply drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheet.
  • Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown: The biscuits are done baking when they are golden brown on top. A toothpick inserted into the center of a biscuit should come out clean.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Cheddar onion drop biscuits are best served warm out of the oven. You can reheat them in the oven or microwave if necessary.

Conclusion:

Cheddar onion drop biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual weeknight dinner to a holiday feast. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create these flavorful biscuits that everyone will love.
