Calories: 360kcal

Ingredients

  • cups whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 Tbs. fresh chives minced
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp. baking soda
  • tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 2 Tbs. butter cold and cut into pieces
  • ½ cup buttermilk Or milk + 2 Tbs. vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°.
  • Whisk together flour, cheddar, chives, salt, baking soda, and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the buttermilk and eggs.
  • Stir until flour mixture just until all ingredients are wet.
  • Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake until golden, between 15 and 18 minutes.

How to Form:

  • To form the biscuits, I drop them on cookie sheets using a soup spoon out of my silverware set.
  • Using this method, I tend to get 18 biscuits out of the recipe.
  • I usually bake 9 right away, then freeze the other. I love it because I can serve hot biscuits for two different dinners but only have to wash the dishes once!

How to Freeze:

  • To freeze these biscuits, line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
  • Then drop the biscuits onto the waxed paper.
  • Freeze for one hour.
  • Remove frozen biscuits from the baking sheet and store in a freezer bag, making sure to squeeze out as much air as possible.
