Cheese and Parmesan Biscuits

Cheese and Parmesan Biscuits combine all-purpose and whole wheat flours with cheddar (or sheep's cheese) and plenty of Parmesan for a rich, savory flavor. The dough is gently kneaded to a smooth texture, chilled, then rolled and cut into biscuit rounds. A brushed egg wash and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan form a slightly crispy, golden crust once baked. Black pepper and chili flakes add a subtle kick, making these biscuits flavorful and satisfying. They can be enjoyed as a snack or alongside soups and salads.

How to make CHEESE AND PARMESAN BISCUITS:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Finely grate the Parmesan cheese.
  2. Mix the eggs lightly with salt.
  3. Add pepper and chili flakes to taste.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the white flour with the whole wheat flour and make a well in the middle.
  5. Place the butter in the well and start kneading with your fingers until you get a crumbly dough.
  6. Add the cheddar (or sheep's cheese) and two thirds of the Parmesan and mix again to evenly distribute the cheeses.
  7. Pour the eggs over the dough and start kneading until the dough is smooth.
  8. If necessary, add milk or flour to obtain a homogeneous dough, not too stiff and easy to work.
  9. Wrap the dough in foil and chill for an hour.
  10. Preheat the oven to 200 C degrees (390 F). Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
  11. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured work surface.
  12. Cut out circles using a cutter.
  13. Place the biscuits in the tray.
  14. Brush with a little beaten egg and sprinkle over some Parmesan.
  15. Bake the biscuits for 10-15 minutes until nicely browned.
  16. Cool on a cooling tray.
  17. They are very tasty and are a great snack when you want to avoid something sweet.
  18. And we don't want sweet all the time.
  19. Enjoy!
