Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter plus 2 tablespoons
  • ½ cup chopped sun dried tomatoes in oil oil drained
  • ½ cup large shredded parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup chopped chives
  • 1 cup cold buttermilk
  • flaky salt and freshly cracked black pepper to top

To Serve:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450˚F.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until crumbly. Make a well in the center, place sun dried tomatoes, cheese, and chives in the well and pour buttermilk over. Carefully and slowly stir until it comes together and makes dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto lightly floured surface and, with floured hands, give it a quick knead 3-4 times to bring it together.
  • Pat the dough into a 8×8 square about 1-inch thick, and cut into 9 square biscuits.
  • Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silpat, brush with melted butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in hot oven till puffed up and golden brown, around 15-18 minutes.
  • Slice each biscuit in half and serve with softened butter, prosciutto, scrambled eggs or whatever else you want!

Notes

  • If you want to sub out the sun dried tomatoes, no problem! Just omit and keep the rest of the recipe the same.
  • If you’d like to use a different kind of cheese, be my guest. Just use the same amount called for below to keep the ratios working properly!
