Sage Bacon And Cheddar Biscuits Recipes

QUICK BACON-CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, paprika, and onion powder. Mix to blend then make a well in the center of the bowl and add the milk, butter, bacon and cheese. Mix gently with a wooden spoon. The dough will be wet and sticky. Using a 1/4 cup measure or ice cream scoop, portion the batter onto a baking sheet, leaving an inch or so around each biscuit.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with a splash of water and then brush this mixture on the top of each biscuit. Bake in the oven until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of one comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes.

BACON-CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Let cool enough to handle; crumble.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and cut in shortening until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and stir just enough to form a ball. Fold in crumbled bacon and Cheddar cheese.
• Drop heaping tablespoonfuls on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve immediately.

BACON, CHEDDAR AND CHIVE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp and brown. Transfer to paper towels and drain. Chop and set aside.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl.
• Using a food processor, pastry cutter, or fingertips incorporate the chilled butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the Cheddar cheese, fresh chives, and cooked bacon. Mix to distribute the ingredients evenly.
• Add the buttermilk and stir just until moistened. Using 1/2 cup dough for each biscuit and using a cup measure or an ice cream scoop, drop the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the mounds about 2-inches apart.
• Bake until the biscuits are golden brown on top, about 15 to 20 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Serve the biscuits warm with melted butter.

CHEDDAR AND SAGE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a food processor, pulse flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add cheddar and sage and pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture is the texture of coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces butter remaining. Add buttermilk and pulse just until combined, 2 to 3 times.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead just until it comes together. With a floured rolling pin, roll dough to a 3/4-inch thickness. With a floured 2 3/4-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 12 biscuits (reroll and cut scraps).
• Place biscuits on a baking sheet, 1 1/2 inches apart, and bake until puffed and golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SAGE, BACON AND CHEDDAR SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 F and grease or line with parchment a large baking sheet.
• Into a large bowl sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
• Cut in butter until it resembles meal.
• Stir in sage, bacon and cheddar until well distributed.
• Blend eggs with 2/3 cup buttermilk and stir into the dry ingredients with enough of the remaining buttermilk (and a few extra tbsp of buttermilk if needed) until the mixture just forms a dough (it will be just slightly sticky).
• Gather into a ball and knead very gently about 3 or 4 times (I do this right in the bowl).
• Divide dough into 3 approximately equal parts.
• Pat each part of dough into a thick circle about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inch thick on a lightly floured surface.
• With a sharp knife cut into 6 to 8 wedges.
• Place scones about 1 inch apart on prepared pan.
• Brush tops with a little cream or evaporated milk, this helps with browning and can be omitted if desired.
• Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes or until done and golden.

Add buttermilk and stir until mixture just forms a dough. Gather dough into a ball and on a lightly floured surface knead gently 8 times. Pat out dough into a 6- by 5-inch rectangle. Cut dough into 9 rectangles and arrange about 1 inch apart on baking sheet. Bake biscuits in middle of oven 15 minutes.
