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