Servings: 12 Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 Cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 Cup Cold Butter *
- 1 Cup Buttermilk **
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 Cup Old Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Combine dry ingredients and then cut in butter (with a pastry cutter or grater). Leave butter a little chunky to allow for airy biscuits when cooked
- Once the mixture has a crumbly texture, add milk.
- Combine, stirring, and then knead on a floured surface just to form a held together dough (do not over handle).
- Flatten out in a rectangle, fold over in thirds & press down to flatten once again. Fold over one more time, then roll to the desired thickness.
- Cut into rounds and place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until browned.
Notes
*Cold Butter: Use a grater or a pastry cutter to incorporate butter in chunks into dry ingredients.
