Parmesan Chive Buttermilk Biscuits
Source of Recipe
internet
List of Ingredients
4 cups organic all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons organic cane sugar
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) very cold butter
1 1/2 cup cold buttermilk
1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1 package of fresh chives, finely slicedRecipe
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
In a bowl, combine the flours, salt, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir until sifted. Using two knives, a pastry blender, or a cheese grater, cut the butter into small bits and work it into the dry ingredients.
Stir in the chives and parmesan. Form a well in the center and add the buttermilk, stirring until moistened. Then, turn out on a floured counter and knead until you are able to form it into a round disc and all of the dough comes together.
Roll the dough out to a 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch thickness. Using a biscuit cutter or the top edge of a a round glass, cut the dough into biscuits. Remove the scraps and re-roll, cutting more biscuits out, until all of the dough has been used.
Place the biscuits on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 - 15 minutes, or until golden on the tops. Eat hot out of the oven
NOTES: I love to split the biscuit in half and spread each side with The Laughing Cow's Light Garlic and Herb Cheese.
For the flour, I like to use 3 cups all-purpose and 1 cup freshly ground white hard white whole wheat flour
