Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup unsalted butter plus 2 tablespoons
- ½ cup chopped sun dried tomatoes in oil oil drained
- ½ cup large shredded parmesan cheese
- ½ cup chopped chives
- 1 cup cold buttermilk
- Flaky salt and freshly cracked black pepper to top
To Serve:
- soft scrambled eggs

- softened 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 sun dried tomatoes, cheese, and chives 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 8×8 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 softened butter, prosciutto, scrambled eggs or whatever else you want!
