Description

These Chipotle Cheddar Drop Biscuits are cheesy, a little smoky with a super soft, moist center and a crusty outside. Super yum!

Ingredients

  • 2-⅓ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Chipotle Powder (or Scale Back To 1 Teaspoon If You Don't Like Spicy)
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cream Of Tartar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cups (or One Stick) Unsalted Butter, Chilled Or Cut Into 1-inch Pieces
  • 2 cups Grated And Tightly Packed Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • 1-¼ cup Buttermilk, Cold
  • 1 whole Large Egg
  • 1 pinch Kosher Salt For Topping

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, pepper, chipotle powder, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and the 1 teaspoon of salt.

Add the butter and, using your hands or the back of a wooden spoon, work the butter into the dough. The mixture should look like coarse sand. Add the cheese and stir to thoroughly incorporate it into the dough.

In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg. Add to the flour mixture and stir until just incorporated. Do not overmix.

Use a small ice cream scoop or a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop the dough and drop it in mounds onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle with kosher salt and bake in the center of the oven for about 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through the baking time, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of a biscuit comes out clean.

Transfer the biscuits to a cooling rack. The biscuits can be served slightly warm or at room temperature (we like them slightly warm).

Store the biscuits in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Cheesey, spicy, buttery, yummy. I made a little egg sandwich with the biscuits. I love them and will definitely be making them again!
