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.

HAM ON BISCUITS

I enjoy entertaining friends at luncheons. They always compliment me on these special little ham sandwiches made on cheesy homemade biscuits. Usually, I use Smithfield ham, but if salty ham is not your preference, any thin-sliced ham works well. -Betsy Hedeman, Timonium, Maryland

2 teaspoons baking powder
5 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Tips for Making the Best Ham on Biscuits:

  • Choose the Right Ham: Select a fully cooked ham that is not too salty. Spiral-cut hams are a good option as they are easy to slice.
  • Make the Biscuits Ahead of Time: You can make the biscuits up to a day in advance and store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley, to add flavor to the biscuits.
  • Don't Overcook the Biscuits: Bake the biscuits until they are just golden brown. Overcooked biscuits will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the Biscuits Cool Slightly: Let the biscuits cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to handle and prevent them from falling apart.
