Here’s a simple, comforting way to make ham and cheese biscuits—fluffy, savory, and perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.
🧀 Ham & Cheese Biscuits
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup cold butter (cubed)
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
- In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter until the mixture looks like crumbs.
- Stir in milk until a soft dough forms.
- Fold in ham and cheese.
- Turn dough onto a floured surface, gently knead a few times.
- Roll out (about 2 cm thick) and cut into rounds.
- Place on a baking tray and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden.
Optional touches:
- Brush tops with butter for extra flavor
- Add a pinch of black pepper or garlic powder
- Swap cheddar for mozzarella or pepper jack
They come out warm, cheesy, and slightly crisp on the outside—great on their own or with a bit of honey or mustard.
