Cheddar scallion drop biscuits are a delicious, savory treat perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a side to your favorite meal. Made with white wheat flour, these biscuits are simple to make and packed with flavor from the cheddar cheese and scallions. The drop method makes them quick and easy, so you can enjoy fresh, warm biscuits without the fuss of rolling and cutting dough.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose white wheat flour, dried milk powder, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
- Add the cold, small pieces of butter to the dry ingredient mixture. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your hands to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and finely chopped scallions until they are evenly distributed throughout the flour mixture.
- Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour in the cold water. Stir gently until the mixture just comes together. Be careful not to over-mix; the dough should be slightly sticky and lumpy.
- Using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each biscuit to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is cold and cut into small pieces before blending into the flour mixture, as this helps create a flakier texture.
- Do not overmix the dough; combining until just incorporated will result in tender biscuits.
- Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet for evenly sized biscuits.
- Experiment with adding other herbs or spices, like garlic powder or chives, for additional flavor variations.
- Serve the biscuits fresh from the oven or reheat them in the oven for a few minutes to restore their warmth and freshness.
These cheddar scallion drop biscuits are a terrific addition to any meal, offering a perfect balance of cheesy goodness and subtle onion flavor. Easy to prepare and bake, they are sure to become a family favorite. Serve them warm with butter or as an accompaniment to soups and stews for a satisfying home-cooked treat.
