directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, to taste, and sugar together using a fork; cut in shortening until it resembles cornmeal.
  • Add cheese.
  • Stir in buttermilk all at one time just until blended. Do not over stir.
  • Drop by tablespoon, or use ice cream scoop, onto a well greased baking sheet.
  • Brush dough with melted butter.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Note: it took the biscuits 20 minutes to cook in my oven, but I have and oven that always takes longer to bake than the recipe says.

  1. I could'nt locate my usual cheese scone recipe and decided to try this one. I decided to just use regular white flour, with the listed baking powder and buttermilk knew it was going to be alright. Baking time was about right and I cut mine into 10 pieces, omitted the melted butter at the end. A really good cheese biscuit, thanks!

Hi, My youngest son is allergic to all nuts, pumpkin, and sweet potatoes. The nut allergy is pretty serious, i have to carry allergy shots with him wherever he goes. Its really scary! The doctor says i have to read the ingredients on everything my son eats. You would be surprised just how many processed foods contain nuts or traces of nuts. Nut oil gets all over the equipment they use for processing and is hard to clean off, it spreads all over everything. Once my sister was eating cashews and kissed my son on the cheek, and he broke out in hives where she kissed him! So it is a constant concern in my life. You are all awesome to share your knowledge and recipes. I've been learning so much from you all. Thanks everybody.
