Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup scallions, chopped
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped scallions.
  5. Gradually add the buttermilk to the mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
