Parmesan Pepper Lemon Biscuits Recipes

PARMESAN AND PEPPER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat a convection oven to 300 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Sift the flour and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• Beat the butter and sugar together in a stand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 8 minutes. Add the Parmesan, thyme, zest, and 2 teaspoons pepper and continue mixing until evenly incorporated, about 2 more minutes. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture just to combine.
• Form into balls, small (1/4-ounce) or large (3/4-ounce), and place 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until lightly golden on the bottoms, about 15 minutes.

PARMESAN AND PEPPER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat a convection oven to 300 degrees F. Butter a baking sheet.
• Whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a stand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 8 minutes. Add the cheese, pepper, thyme and lemon zest and continue beating until evenly incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture and beat until just combined. Add just enough ice water to bring the mixture together (about 4 tablespoons).
• Press the dough into the prepared baking sheet. Place a sheet of parchment paper over the top and smooth the surface with your hands. Remove the parchment and bake until the edges are lightly golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool for about 15 minutes, then turn out onto a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut the biscuit into 1-inch squares (12 lines horizontally and 16 lines vertically).
• Using a squeeze bottle, place a dab of chutney on each biscuit and serve.

EASY PARMESAN BISCUITS

PARMESAN-PEPPER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Pulse cheese with butter in a food processor until combined. Add flour, yolk, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, then pulse until a dough forms. Roll into a 6-inch log (1 1/2 inches thick). Wrap in parchment paper and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Cut log into 1/4-inch-thick slices and arrange 1 inch apart on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes. Cool to warm on a rack.

LEMON-THYME BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, wheat germ, salt, lemon zest and thyme in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it is in pea-size pieces. Gently stir in the buttermilk with a wooden spoon until just moistened. The dough will be loose.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3 to 5 times, just until it comes together. (Don't overknead or the biscuits will be tough.) Roll out to 1/2 inch thick, then cut out biscuits using a floured 2-inch-round cutter. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet. Reroll the scraps and cut out more biscuits. Brush the tops with water and sprinkle lightly with salt and thyme.
• Bake the biscuits until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk the flour with the sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl.
• Cut butter into tablspoon size pieces. Rub in 2 tablespoons of the butter with your fingers until no visible pieces remain. Rub in the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter just until it is in even, pea-size pieces.
• Scatter grated and diced cheese over the top and toss with a rubber spatula. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the milk to make a loose dough.
• Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Fold dough into thirds, like a business letter, and pat lightly into an 8x5-inch rectangle - about 3/4 inch thick.
• Using a 2-3 inch round biscuit cutter, cut 6 biscuits and place on baking sheet. Press dough scraps together and cut 2 more biscuits.
• Bake until tops are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly on a wire rack and serve warm.
