Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour plus more for kneading
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon of salt
- 12 tablespoons 1 ½ sticks cold unsalted butter, diced
- ½ cup + 1 tablespoon very cold milk
- 2 cold extra-large eggs divided
- 1 cup grated extra-sharp Cheddar
- ½ cup finely chopped pepperoni
- marinara sauce
Instructions
Make the dough:
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine 2 cups of flour, baking powder, and salt. With the mixer on low and the paddle attachment in place add the butter and mix, until the butter and flour form pea-sized bits.
- In a large measuring cup, whisk the milk with one egg.
- Pour the liquid mixture into the flour and butter, and mix on medium speed until just incorporated.
Cup of Yum
Make the pizza biscuits:
- Add the grated cheese and pepperoni pieces to the dough and fold to combine.
- Sprinkle the additional flour onto a large cutting board and transfer the dough onto the floured surface.
- Gently knead with your hands until the dough is cohesive. Flatten with hands and roll it out to an inch thickness.
- Using a biscuit cutter or sharp knife cut the dough into 8 to 10 large biscuits. Piece together any leftover dough and repeat.
- Transfer the biscuits to a lined baking sheet and brush with the egg wash.
Bake:
- Sprinkle each biscuit with cheese and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and cool for 2 minutes before serving with marinara sauce.
Notes
- These biscuits can be made gluten-free by using an all-purpose gluten-free flour mix. I've successfully tested these with Bob's Red Mill, 1:1 Baking flour mix.
