Cheddar Biscuits

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons cup frozen butter
• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon + 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine flour, salt and baking powder in a bowl.
3. Grate frozen butter using a box grater. Add in grated cheese. Give the mixture a stir to distribute butter throughout the flour.
4. Add buttermilk into the flour butter mixture and stir using a wooden spoon- around 15 stirs will do. Careful not to overwork the dough.
5. Onto a lightly floured surface, dump the bowl contents out - the dough will be shaggy at this point. Pat the dough out an inch thick and then fold onto itself. Repeat 5 times.
6. Pat the dough out into 1/2" thick round and cut out biscuits of your size preference.
7. Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown.
