Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, diced
1/2 cup cold buttermilk, shaken
1 cold extra-large egg
1 cup grated extra-sharp Cheddar
1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water or milk
Maldon sea salt, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place 2 cups of flour, the baking powder, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. With the mixer on low, add the butter and mix until the butter is the size of peas.
  • Combine the buttermilk and egg in a small measuring cup and beat lightly with a fork. With the mixer still on low, quickly add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and mix only until moistened. In a small bowl, mix the Cheddar with small handful of flour and, with the mixer still on low, add the cheese to the dough. Mix only until roughly combined.
  • Dump out onto a well-floured board and knead lightly about 6 times. Roll the dough out to a rectangle 10 by 5 inches. With a sharp, floured knife, cut the dough lengthwise in half and then across in quarters, making 8 rough rectangles. Transfer to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the egg wash, sprinkle with salt, if using, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops are browned and the biscuits are cooked through. Serve hot or warm.

BUTTERMILK BISCUITS

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 10 to 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons ice cold butter
3/4 cup buttermilk
Cinnamon Spiced Butter, recipe follows
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
8 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
  • Slice butter and put on a plate in the freezer.
  • Sift the dry ingredients together into a bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or a fork until it looks like coarse sand. Add the buttermilk and continue to cut the dough together. Turn out onto a floured surface and gently bring together. Gently press the dough into a rectangle until it is between 1/2 and 3/4-inch thick.
  • Use a round cutter that has been floured to cut the biscuits. Place in the freezer for at least 20 minutes. Remove biscuits from freezer and place on parchment paper on a baking sheet so they are touching each other. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve with spiced butter.
  • Mix dry ingredients together. Blend together with the butter using the back of a spoon. Wrap tightly and refrigerate overnight or a few hours.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter will help create flaky biscuits. If the butter is too warm, it will melt and make the biscuits tough.
  • Work quickly: The longer you work the dough, the tougher the biscuits will be. Once the dough is mixed, roll it out and cut the biscuits as quickly as possible.
  • Don't over-mix the dough: Over-mixing the dough will also make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the biscuits at a high temperature: Baking the biscuits at a high temperature will help them rise quickly and create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcook the biscuits: Overcooked biscuits will be dry and crumbly. Bake the biscuits just until they are golden brown.
