Cabot Cheddar Biscuits

Indulge in the irresistible warmth of homemade Cabot Cheddar Biscuits, where the sharp, nutty flavor of Cabot sharp cheddar cheese meets the rich creaminess of buttermilk. These biscuits are a perfect blend of flaky and tender, making them an ideal companion for breakfast, brunch, or as a delightful side to any meal. With a golden-brown crust that gives way to a soft, cheesy interior, each bite is a comforting reminder of home-cooked goodness. Historically, biscuits have roots in Southern cuisine and have evolved into a beloved staple across the United States, often gracing tables during family gatherings and festive occasions.

Serves 12

Ingredients

All-purpose flour
2 cups
Baking powder
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Unsalted butter
1/2 cup, cold and cubed
Cabot sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup, shredded
Buttermilk
3/4 cup

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the shredded Cabot sharp cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  5. Pour in the buttermilk and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
  6. Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, drop the dough by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Serve warm, ideally with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey for added flavor.

Tips

  • 💡 For a twist, consider adding fresh herbs like chives or thyme to the dough for an extra layer of flavor.
  • 💡 You can substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a nuttier taste and added nutrition.
  • 💡 These biscuits freeze well! Just freeze them after baking and reheat in the oven when ready to serve.
