How to Make Cornmeal Cheddar Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cornmeal, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese and 3/4 cup milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Drop by 1/4 cupfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each biscuit.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve warm with butter or your favorite dipping sauce.
