These biscuits are great of you are planning a family brunch, dinner, relaxing lunch or weekend breakfast. Easy to put together and great as an addition to any meal!
Homemade Chive Biscuits:
2 cups of flour
1 tablespoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of sugar
1/4 cup of cold, unsalted butter, diced
3/4 cups of half and half cream
1/2 cup of chopped fresh chives
1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water (for egg wash)
Combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar with electric mixer, fitted with paddle attachment. Mix in butter on low until the size of peas. Add cream, beat until just mixed. Add chives and mix until just combined.
Dump dough onto floured board and knead lightly. Form a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Cut out rounds with 2-1/2 inch cutter, place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with egg wash.
Bake at 400F oven for about 20 minutes, until tops are golden brown and insides are firm.
These biscuits are great served warm and you can also reheat them by wrapping them in aluminum foil and placing them in warm oven for 5-10 minutes.
Hope this recipe will work out for you and I would appreciate your comments and suggestions anytime!
