Ingredients (per serving):
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/2 cup sweet corn kernels, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure your butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the dry ingredients. This will help create a flaky texture in the biscuits.
- If using frozen corn, make sure to thaw it before adding it to the dough.
- Don't overmix the dough! Mix until just combined to avoid tough biscuits.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the chilled butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Stir in the sweet corn and cheddar cheese.
5. Add the buttermilk and stir until just combined.
6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until it comes together.
7. Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass.
8. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
9. Serve warm and enjoy!
