Looking for a delicious appetizer recipe that will impress your guests? Look no further than these Gouda and Sundried Tomato Biscuits! Made with a combination of savory Gouda cheese and tangy sundried tomatoes, these biscuits are the perfect way to start any meal.
Ingredients (serves 6):
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/2 cup grated Gouda cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped sundried tomatoes
- 1/2 cup milk
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure your butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the flour mixture. This will help create a flaky texture in the biscuits.
- Use a sharp cheddar cheese if you can't find Gouda.
- If you don't have sundried tomatoes, you can substitute with chopped fresh tomatoes.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Stir in the grated Gouda cheese and chopped sundried tomatoes.
5. Add the milk to the mixture and stir until a dough forms.
6. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes.
7. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) and use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds.
8. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
9. Serve warm and enjoy!
