We love to start our day with biscuits, and if you have followed us for any amount of time, you know that biscuits are one of our favorites. These were a great addition, they are easy to make and a wonderful way to enjoy apples!
🍴KEY INGREDIENTS
- All-purpose flour
- Baking powder
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Sugar
- Butter
- Egg
- Buttermilk
- Apples, peeled and grated
- Shredded cheese of your choice (I used cheddar)
SWAPS
You can switch out the cheese or leave it out altogether. You could use milk to make these biscuits but we do like the buttermilk, it has a better fat content for making biscuits.
🍽️HOW TO MAKE
These biscuits are easy to make; if you are new to making biscuits, the flour will always vary. All flour is made differently so you may need to add more to reach your desired consistency.
COOKING STEPS
Step 1
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar. Cut the butter into the flour until it resembles crumbs.
Step 2
Add egg and buttermilk mixing with a spoon. Fold in grated apples and cheese.
Step 3
Pour dough out onto a floured surface. Pat to about 1/4 to 1/2 inches thick. (I just use my hands and pat the dough out.) Cut with biscuit cutter into rounds.
Step 4
Place on a sprayed baking sheet and bake in a preheated 400-degree oven for about 15 minutes until brown on top.
⭐TIP
When making biscuits, please remember that all flours are different. Flour comes from different regions, and it’s always going to be dependent on how much you use and the way the flour is made. So if a recipe calls for 2 cups, you may need 2.5 or even 3. You must add flour until the dough is the consistency you need to make the biscuits.
