Ingredients
- ½ cup butternut squash puree (canned or homemade)
- ½ cup lowfat buttermilk or regular milk
- ½ TBSP honey
- ½ cup coarsely grated cheddar cheese
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 TBSP baking powder
- ½ tsp of salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ cup cold unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Whisk together butternut, milk, and honey in a small bowl and place in the fridge to chill.
- Grate your cheese and pop that in the fridge as well.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
- Cut cold butter into the flour mixture. You can do so using a pastry cutter, a box grater, or simply chop butter into tiny cubes with a knife and mash into the flour with a fork. I grated mine.
- Next add your cheese to the milk bowl and slowly pour into the flour mixture while gently mixing with a fork.
- The dough should be a bit sticky but not super wet nor dry.
- Dust a hard surface with flour [to prevent sticking] and knead your dough.
- I typically knead mine for about 8-10 strokes and then stop manhandling it.
- Roll out [with your hands or a rolling pin] your dough onto a lightly floured surface and flatten until about 1 inch thick.
- Use a biscuit cutter [or serve them up drop biscuit style!] to cut out approximately 6 biscuits from the dough.
- Lay flat, spaced, on an un-greased, nonstick baking pan and bake for 13-15 minutes at 425F.
- If you're feeling feisty, before popping the biscuits in the oven, brush them with melted butter.
- To make them taste like they were plucked straight from the Red Lobster kitchen, season 1 tablespoon of melted butter with 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/8 tsp parsley, and a pinch of salt, then brush the mixture over biscuits just prior to baking. Close your eyes, unbutton your pants, and do it. You only live once =)
