Blueberry Cheddar Biscuits
Hearty biscuits made with cheddar cheese and blueberries
Ingredients
- 2 cups of flour
- 2/3 cup of sugar
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- Mix these ingredients well. **For those that like to omit the salt please don't. It is needed for leavening and is an intricate part of the recipe.
- 6 Tbsp Butter diced
- Mix the butter into the dried ingredients until a flake like dough is formed.
- Or until the butter is like little peas in the sand.
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 cinnamon
- *Add these ingredients and mix into a wet dough
- 1 cup or so fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon mix the berries and cheese into your dough. It will be sticky. You may add a tablespoon of flour so that you may form a ball with the dough.
- Place dough on cutting board and with your hands pat the dough to around an inch thick.
- Cut into round biscuits and place in greased pan or cast iron skillet and bake at 375° for 20-30 minutes or until the top is lightly browned.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving with whipped butter and some LunaGrown Lemon Marmalade!
