Description
Unleash a burst of flavor with these irresistibly flaky and cheesy Jalapeno Biscuits! Perfect for spicing up any meal, these biscuits combine the sharpness of cheddar with the zest of fresh jalapenos, all encased in a buttery, tender crumb.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
6 tbsp cold butter, cubed
¾ cup buttermilk
1 large jalapeño, finely chopped
1 tsp garlic powder
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
Cut in the cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add buttermilk and stir just until the dough begins to come together.
Fold in chopped jalapeño, garlic powder, and cheddar cheese.
Turn dough onto a floured surface and pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut with a biscuit cutter.
Place biscuits on the prepared sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.
Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Notes
Keep your butter cold for the flakiest biscuits.
Do not overmix the dough to maintain tenderness.
For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
