Cheddar Biscuits with Old World Cheddar

Ingredients

Sartori® Cheese

Old World Cheddar


1 block, Sartori® Old World Cheddar, shredded

3 cups All-Purpose Flour

3 Tbsp. Granulated Sugar

1 Tbsp. Baking Powder

1 tsp. Garlic, minced

¾ tsp. Kosher Salt

¼ tsp. Paprika

1 stick Unsalted Butter, cold and cubed

6 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter, melted

1 cup Buttermilk

1 large Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients and garlic. Add cubed butter and combine with pastry cutter until the butter is almost fully blended into the dough. Stir in about ¾ of the Old World Cheddar.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk and egg. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Using a spoon to stir, slowly add in the buttermilk and egg mixture. Stir until a dough is just formed (over mixing will make tough biscuits—we’re after fluffy).

Step 4

Scoop the dough, 6 on each prepared baking sheet. Brush each biscuit with melted butter (keep the leftover butter handy) and top with remaining shredded Old World Cheddar.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes. Brush each biscuit with more melted butter and rotate baking sheets. Bake until the biscuits are a light golden brown, about 10 minutes more.

Step 6

Once out of the oven, brush the biscuits one more time with melted butter. Cool at least 10 minutes.
