Categories     Side Dish

Time 27m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
1/4 cup basil pesto
1/2 cup milk
Finely shredded Parmesan cheese, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450°F. Mix flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Cut in shortening and pesto, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in just enough milk so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
  • Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch cookie or biscuit cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.

The biscuits didn't rise very much and were a bit dense.

I'm not a big fan of pesto, but I really enjoyed these biscuits. The pesto flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

I love the combination of pesto and cheese in these biscuits. The pesto gives them a nice savory flavor, and the cheese makes them gooey and delicious.
