Scallion and Cheddar Drop Biscuits
I think it is good and important to critique structures and institutions that make up our everyday lives. Whether it is interrogating patriarchy, kyriarchy, capitalism, U.S. imperialism, colonialism - I am all for reimagining a more just and equal world. But I have my limits. And I draw the line at bread. I fully support the hegemony of bread. I feel like bread has been receiving a bad rap. I'm supposed to be all like, "Oh I feel so much better after not eating bread." Bread is a "sometimes" food. No. I am a fervent believer in the amazingness of bread and other, great bread-like products. So there! Here are some scallion and cheddar biscuits to celebrate.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into tiny pieces
3 scallions, chopped
2 cups coarsely grated cheddar cheese
1 cup half and half
Instructions
Heat oven to 450. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Add the pieces of butter and using your fingers work the butter with the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumble. Stir in the chopped scallions and cheddar cheese. Then stir in half and half. Drop the batter onto a Silpat-lined baking sheet in large spoon-fuls. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, until they have a golden brown color.

ReplyDeleteMy parents will be away this weekend, which only means one thing. I get to have both kitchens to myself. Meaning, cooking and baking experimentations will be going on. LOL.. I definitely am making these end week and going to serve them with a good hearty soup. Hmm.. now time to think of a soup! Talk about ways to indulge or satisfy a crave. xoxo
ReplyDeleteYes, bread definitely needs to make a come-back! It's because of delicious-looking cheddar-y biscuits like this, that I could never give up carbs. Ever.

ReplyDeleteYou tell em, bead is a staple a must have. These sound fantastic, I love scallions and chedder in biscuits or BREAD.
ReplyDeleteBread is my favorite category of food!!! I pray I'm never told I need to give it up! Your biscuits look perfect for so many meals...they'd be wonderful with the chili I'm making later this week :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the amazingness of bread! And, these biscuits look amazing. And, I've been craving cheddar biscuits lately.

ReplyDeleteMy aunt used to make the most amazing biscuits - always light and flaky. These look equally as delicious for sure!
ReplyDeleteOh I'm loving these savory biscuits - they look like just the thing to enjoy alongside a bowl of soup!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. Bread is made to be eaten, not to be looked at!
ReplyDeleteThose biscuits look super yummy.
These drop biscuits look simply irresistible! I have some soup ready and a couple of these biscuits would be what I need!
ReplyDeleteThese biscuits look amazing!I would love a dozen of those!
ReplyDeleteI'm imagining how stellar these would be to split up in the mornings and stuff with yummies for the ultimate breakfast sammy---I love the simplicity/accessibility of these biscuits, thank you so much for sharing =D

ReplyDeletegarlic, paprika and cheese - Yes, please! Great recipe! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat biscuit - I bet these would be perfect as a just because or with some spicy chili (not traditional but whatever, it'd still be good)
ReplyDeleteI am so intrigued to make these tomorrow morning! Well only several hours later... I am hoping that I have enough cheddar in the fridge. These biscuits look SO wonderful! I cannot take my eyes off of them!
ReplyDeletewhat would happen if I left out the sugar in these??
ReplyDeleteor could I add agave or maple sugar?? hate having to work the sugar out of all the great looking recipes!!
These look really good!
ReplyDeleteWe would call those scones in New Zealand. And we call biscuits what you refer to as cookies. There you go, your useless piece of information for today :)
ReplyDeleteThanksgiving Day and just made these. Super tasty! I used a mixture of garlic powder and roasted garlic. I ended up needing to use the dough hook on the kitchen aid mixer to mix in the cheese. It might be easier to just use it from the beginning. Don't overmix though!

ReplyDeleteThis is such a nice addition thanks!!!
