Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 /2 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme finely chopped
- 1/2 /2 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
- whipped honey butter for serving
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400°F. In a food processor, add flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Pulse several times to combine.
- Add cold, cubed butter to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times until butter is incorporated into the flour and forms a pea-sized mixture. Add milk, thyme, and parmesan. Pulse until combined and moist; a "ball" will start to form. Don't over mix at this point!
- Scoop out approximately 1/3 cup of dough and place on a baking sheet (dough will be divided into six even drops). Bake for 18-22 minutes until the tops begin to turn golden brown. Best served warm with whipped honey butter and a pinch of flakey sea salt!

Notes
- No Food Processor? Use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dough, and stir in the remaining ingredients.
- Freezing: Wrap them individually and store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Once ready to enjoy, thaw them on the counter for several hours, or bring them out of the freezer at least 30 minutes to an hour before enjoying and then place them in the oven to fully warm through before serving.
- Dried Thyme: to use dried thyme, use 1 teaspoon.
- *Look for cheese specifically labeled vegetarian, if needed.
