Nothing beats a little lovin' from the oven.
Getting out of bed on a weekend morning is a heckuva lot easier when there's a big pan of warm biscuits waiting. These up the ante with the addition of bacon, sharp cheddar, and flecks of herbs. And, bonus: you'll discover a newfound love for your grater!
FEATURED SEEDLINGS
INGREDIENTS
6
scallions (bunching onions), minced
1/4 c
parsley, chopped
4
strips bacon, cooked & crumbled
1/3 c
sharp cheddar, grated
3 c
all-purpose flour
1 tsp
salt
1 Tbsp
baking powder
3 Tbsp
sugar
6 Tbsp
butter
1 c
milk
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425.
Step 2
Mix together the dry ingredients. Use a grater to grate cold butter into dry ingredients. Use your hands to toss until butter is evenly distributed.
Step 3
Add bacon, scallions, cheese, and parsley and toss again.
Step 4
Add the milk, all at once, mixing quickly and gently for about 20 seconds until you have a soft dough. If mixture seems too dry, add a little more milk, but dough should be fairly stiff.
Step 5
On a lightly floured surface, pat dough out to a rough rectangle about 1" thick. Fold into thirds like a letter, then pat out again, turn dough and repeat. Use a fairly light touch through this process. Pat out again to about 1" thick, then cut into 12 squares.
Step 6
Place onto buttered baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
