Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 10 tbsp unsalted butter frozen or very cold
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 1/3 cups buttermilk very cold
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
- Using the large side of the grater, grate the frozen butter into the dry ingredients.
- Add the grated cheese and the cold buttermilk. Use a spatula to stir together the ingredients, working quickly but gently.
- Scoop the dough onto a floured surface. Fold the dough over itself a few times to form a cohesive ball. It should be crumbly and flaky. Roll out the dough to a 1 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out 3 inch sized biscuits using a biscuit cutter.
- Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake them for 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Enjoy!
