How to Make Buttermilk Cheddar Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk and 1 large egg.
- Gradually add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, mixing with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, toss 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese with 2 tablespoons of flour.
- Add the cheese mixture to the dough and gently fold until just combined.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 6-8 times.
- Pat the dough into a 10x5 inch rectangle.
- Cut the dough lengthwise in half, then crosswise into quarters, creating 8 rectangles.
- Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops with a little extra buttermilk or milk and sprinkle with a pinch of coarse sea salt (optional).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
