These cheesy salty Pancetta Biscuits are the perfect DIY brunch recipe for a weekend!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 4 ounces diced pancetta, cooked and crisped
- ⅓ cup gruyere cheese, cut into ¼ inch cubes
- 1 cup cold buttermilk
- Flaky salt and freshly cracked black pepper to top
To Serve
- soft scrambled eggs
- sliced prosciutto
- shredded gruyere cheese
- soft butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450˚F.
- In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until crumbly. Make a well in the center, place pancetta and cheese in the well and pour buttermilk over. Carefully and slowly stir until it comes together and makes dough.
- Turn the dough out onto lightly floured surface and, with floured hands, give it a quick knead 3-4 times to bring it together.
- Pat the dough into a 8x8 square about 1-inch thick, and cut into 9 square biscuits.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silpat, brush with melted butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in hot oven till puffed up and golden brown, around 15-18 minutes.
- Slice each biscuit in half and serve with sliced cheese, prosciutto, scrambled eggs and whatever else you want on the best breakfast sandwich!
Notes
- I love to use this as a sandwich base but you can simply serve them alongside your bacon and eggs if you want.
