Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup buttermilk
- 8 pieces bacon strips
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, pour in the buttermilk, and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat or roll out to about 1/2 inch thick.
Use a biscuit cutter or a glass dipped in flour to cut out biscuits. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut more biscuits.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In the same skillet, wipe some of the bacon fat if necessary, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt and pepper.
Split the freshly baked biscuits and place a slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each.
Top with two strips of bacon, one fried egg, and the top half of the biscuit.
Serve the bacon egg and cheese biscuits warm.
