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.

Country Ham Biscuits and Scallion-Pimento Cheese image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Time 40m

Yield 16 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 10

Two 7-ounce bricks sharp white Cheddar, finely grated
Two 4-ounce jars pimentos, drained and diced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped scallions
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes and chilled, plus 1 tablespoon for the skillet
3/4 cup buttermilk, well shaken
1/4 cup finely diced country ham

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven to heat.
  • For the scallion-pimento cheese: Stir together the cheese, pimentos, mayonnaise and scallions in a large bowl. Set aside, or if making ahead, place in the fridge until ready to use.
  • For the country ham biscuits: Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Using a pastry blender or 2 table knives, cut the cold butter cubes into the flour until it resembles coarse meal. Use a fork to stir in the buttermilk to make a soft dough that comes together and leaves the sides of the bowl (make sure all the flour is worked in). Stir in the ham. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead 3 or 4 times until smooth and manageable.
  • With your hands or a floured rolling pin, flatten the dough to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Cut the dough out with a 2-inch floured biscuit cutter.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in it. Place the biscuits in the skillet. Bake until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • To serve: Split the biscuits and serve with a generous spread of pimento cheese.

QUICK SCALLION BISCUITS



Quick Scallion Biscuits image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups cold milk
1 lemon, zested
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
Kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed and well chilled in the freezer
4 scallions, finely chopped, white and light green only

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Combine the milk, zest and lemon juice in a tall glass. Refrigerate and allow to curdle for 10 to 15 minutes, until thick. Sift together the flour, a generous pinch of salt, and baking soda into a medium bowl. Using your fingers gently mix in the butter until an even, but grainy texture is reached, being careful not to melt the butter as you work. Add the soured milk and scallions and stir until the dough comes together. (Dough will be sticky.) Gather the dough into a ball, and refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes, until chilled.
  • Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead 3 to 4 times until the dough is smooth. For fluffy biscuits do not over knead the dough! Roll out the dough to about 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with a 3-inch pastry ring or the top of a glass. Arrange the biscuits on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Allow the biscuits to slightly touch and gently adhere when baked. Bake until biscuits are golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a bread basket or bowl and serve.

SALAMI AND SCALLION BISCUITS



Salami and Scallion Biscuits image

These rich, savory biscuits are even better than the traditional ham and cheese variety. Bits of chopped salami and scallions are scattered throughout tender dough that's been enriched with heavy cream. Did we mention that they come together - start to finish - in about 45 minutes? They'll be gone in about five.

  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 to 5 turns, just until dough comes together. If dough is dry and crumbly, add more cream as needed.

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!

SCALLION BISCUITS



Scallion Biscuits image

I prefer these biscuits with the added garlic, but I'm a bit of a garlic fiend. They're so insanely easy, even I could whip them out. I baked them on my seasoned and cornmeal sprinkled pizza stone and they came out beautifully, rose high and were light and fluffy. And I forgot to brush the tops with milk, but it really didn't make a difference as far as I could tell. This afternoon we had them with Recipe #217450 and wow, what a burst of flavor!

SALAMI AND SCALLION BISCUITS

From the New York Times. Author Melissa Clark says these can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered with plastic, and baked while the turkey rests. I generally do not use kosher salt in baked goods, so I would probably use 1/2 tsp table salt.

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:

  • Use chilled ingredients: Cold butter and buttermilk will help create flaky layers in your biscuits.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the biscuits rise more evenly.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the biscuits rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Freshly baked biscuits are best served warm. You can reheat them in a warm oven or microwave if necessary.

Conclusion:

Scallion biscuits are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect scallion biscuits every time.
