Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup cooked bacon (crumbled)
- 0.25 cup green onions (chopped)
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 unit egg (beaten, for brushing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
Pour in the milk and gently stir until the mixture comes together into a dough. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it down into a 1-inch thick rectangle and cut into small bite-sized pieces (around 1.5 inches in diameter).
Place the biscuit bites onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg to give them a golden crust once baked.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits feel firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
