Time 45m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon grill seasoning (such as McCormick® Grill Mates® Montreal Steak Seasoning)
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup cold, unsalted butter, shredded on a box grater
1 ¼ cups buttermilk
¾ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
¼ cup minced green onion, white and green parts
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, steak seasoning, and baking soda together in a large bowl. Add shredded butter and blend with your fingertips until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Gradually pour buttermilk into the bowl, stirring with a stiff rubber spatula until you have a soft, moist dough that holds together. Fold in Cheddar cheese and scallions quickly, mixing just until all of the flour is incorporated.
  • Drop biscuit dough onto a large baking pan using a two-tablespoon cookie scoop, spacing them 3 to a row. Gently brush tops of biscuits with melted butter.
  • Bake until biscuits are cooked through and golden brown on the outside and nicely risen, 17 to 22 minutes. Let cool on the pan for about 5 minutes, and serve warm.

SCALLION & CHEDDAR DROP BISCUITS - VEGAN



Scallion & Cheddar Drop Biscuits - Vegan image

Veganized from Gourmet Magazine. These were fantastic! Made for St. Patrick's Day 2012. They turned out fluffy and flaky and were so simple. I used Daiya brand vegan Cheddar cheese shreds, and reduced the amount of cheese to 1 full cup (instead of 1 1/2, which was in the regional recipe) I also used my Pampered Chef Large cookie scoop to make the drop biscuits puffy and even!

CHEDDAR-SCALLION BISCUITS



Cheddar-Scallion Biscuits image

Categories     Cheese     Bread     Side

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
4 ounces cheddar, shredded
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl until combined. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work cold butter into flour mixture until butter is in small, flattened pieces and mixture is crumbly. Stir in scallions and 1/2 cup cheese. Add 3/4 cup buttermilk, and stir just until dough comes together, adding up to 1/4 cup additional buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary. (Dough should be neither sticky nor crumbly.)
  • Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface, and knead 3 to 4 times just to bring dough together. Pat dough out into an 8- x 6-inch rectangle (3/4 to 1 inch thick); cut dough into 8 rectangular biscuits.
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese into 8 mounds about 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheet, scattering cheese just a bit so some cheese will stick out from under biscuits. Place each biscuit rectangle on a mound of cheese on baking sheet. Bake biscuits in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Chilling the dough before baking helps to create flakier biscuits.
  • To make sure the biscuits are cooked through, bake them until they are golden brown on top.
  • Grated cheddar cheese adds a sharp, cheesy flavor to the biscuits.
  • Chopped scallions add a mild onion flavor and a pop of color.
  • Buttermilk adds a tangy flavor and helps to make the biscuits light and fluffy.
  • All-purpose flour is the most common type of flour used to make biscuits.
  • Baking powder and baking soda are both leavening agents that help the biscuits to rise.
  • Salt adds flavor and helps to balance the sweetness of the other ingredients.

Conclusion:

Cheddar scallion biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The combination of cheddar cheese, scallions, and buttermilk gives these biscuits a unique and flavorful taste. These biscuits are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
