Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Using your two knives or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal.
- The faster you do this the better, you want the butter to remain cold.
- Toss in the cheese.
- Stir in the honey and milk until just combined.
- DO NOT overmix, the dough will be messy looking.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust the dough with flour.
- Gently pat the dough out until it’s a 3/4-inch (10cm) in thickness.
- Use a 2-inch (5cm) round biscuit cutter to push straight down through the dough to cut out circles, try not to twist the cutter.
- Place the biscuits on the baking sheet, spacing 2-inch (5cm) apart.
- Reform the scrap dough into 3/4-inch (10cm) thickness, being sure to work with it as little as possible, before cutting out more circles.
- Sprinkle each biscuit with more Tillamook Farmstyle Thick Cut Sharp Cheddar Shreds.
- At this point the unbaked biscuits can be frozen and stored in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to bake.
- Bake straight from the freezer, adding a couple more minutes to the baking time.
- Bake the biscuits until golden brown, about 12 to 15 minutes.
- Serve warm.
