Maple Bacon Biscuits INGREDIENTS • 8 slices bacon, diced • 4 cups all-purpose flour • 1 cup shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese • 4 teaspoons baking powder • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, frozen • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk • 6 tablespoons maple syrup, divided • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter INSTRUCTIONS • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. • Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat; transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. • In a large bowl, combine bacon, flour, cheese, baking powder, salt and baking soda. • Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture. • In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk and 4 tablespoons maple syrup. Add to the flour mixture and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. • Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 12 rounds using a 2 to 2 1/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet; place in the freezer for 15 minutes. • Remove biscuits from freezer. Place into oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. • In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup and butter. • Serve biscuits warm, brushed with the maple-butter mixture. ➡️ If You see any recipe I post at @FoodAndRecipesWithCherokee on @Yummmys or @Cookingwithlov, it has been stolen from here - please report these channels to telegram @FoodAndRecipesWithCherokee 🦉
