Buttery, flaky biscuits loaded with sharp cheddar and fresh chives, perfect for serving with soups or breakfast sandwiches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1 cup cold buttermilk
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
  4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives.
  5. Pour in the cold buttermilk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. For drop biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. For cut biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat or roll the dough to about 3/4-inch thickness. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter and place them on the baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
  9. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure your butter and buttermilk are very cold.
  • These biscuits freeze well. Let them cool completely, then store in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 1 month. Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-10 minutes.
  • You can substitute regular milk for buttermilk if needed, but the texture will be slightly different.
