Serves 12

Ingredients

All-purpose flour
2 cups
Baking powder
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Cold unsalted butter
1/2 cup, diced
Cheddar cheese
1 cup, shredded
Cooked bacon
1/2 cup, crumbled
Milk
3/4 cup

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Add the cold diced unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gently fold in the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  5. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together.
  7. Roll out the dough to a 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra kick, consider adding chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the dough.
  • 💡 Experiment with different types of cheese such as pepper jack or gouda for unique flavor variations.
  • 💡 These biscuits are best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
