How to Make Bacon And Onion Biscuits
- Cook 4 slices bacon, chopped, and 1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped, in a large skillet over medium heat until bacon is crispy and onion is tender (about 8-10 minutes).
- Remove bacon and onion mixture from skillet, leaving about 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pan. Set aside and drain on paper towels.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup sugar.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1 cup milk, cooked bacon and onion mixture.
- Gently mix with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times until dough holds together.
- Pat or roll dough to 3/4 inch thickness.
- Cut dough with a 2-inch biscuit cutter or use a knife to cut into squares. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet or into a muffin tin.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
