Provided by McCormick

Categories     Sides

Yield 20 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 slices bacon, think-cut, cooked and roughly chopped
4 cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 ½ cups shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese
¼ cup McCormick® Freeze-Dried Chives
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons McCormick® Pure Ground Black Pepper
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, frozen and grated on the large holes of a box grater
1 ¾ cups buttermilk, cold
1 large egg yolk
2 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the bacon, flour, cheddar cheese, McCormick® Freeze-Dried Chives, baking powder, McCormick® Pure Ground Black Pepper, salt, baking soda, garlic powder, grated butter, and buttermilk. Stir with a rubber spatula until just combined.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and gently shape and roll out to a 1¼-inch-thick rectangle.

  • Bake the biscuits for 14-17 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
  • Leftover biscuits will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or you can freeze unbaked biscuits in a zip-top freezer bag for up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flakier biscuits. Cut the butter into small pieces and work it into the flour mixture quickly to avoid it getting too warm.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the dough comes together.
  • Let the dough rest: Letting the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the biscuits rise and be more tender.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and evenly.
  • Watch the biscuits carefully while baking: Biscuits can go from done to overdone quickly, so keep an eye on them while they're in the oven.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Biscuits are best served warm, right out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.

Conclusion:

Ale and cheddar biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of fluffy, cheesy biscuits that will be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or side dish, give ale and cheddar biscuits a try!
