Cheddar - Rosemary Biscuits
Servings: 6-8 biscuits
Ingredients:
3.5 cups all-purpose flour
2 sticks cold unsalted butter plus extra for serving
1 cup buttermilk
1.5 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
1.5 tsp salt
4 oz grated cheddar cheese
2.5 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix together
flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in
the cheese and rosemary and stir until well combined.
2. Cut the cold butter and fold into the flour mixture. Slowly
incorporate the buttermilk, kneading the dough as you go.
3. Once the dough has come together, create a 1-inch-thick
rectangle. Cut into four equal pieces and stack them, one
on top of the other. Roll the rectangle out to one-inch
thickness and use a biscuit cutter to cut them out.
4. Place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Cook for 20-25 minutes until nice and golden brown.
5. Cut the biscuit in half and add a 1/2-inch piece of butter to melt
in the middle of each biscuit before serving while it is warm.
