Bisquick Cheese Rolled Biscuits
I love making these biscuits in the morning, cutting them down the center, and placing a poached egg with a thinly sliced piece of cooked ham and cheese in between. These are better than an eggMcMuffin.
Ingredients
- 2¼ cups Bisquick
- ¼ tsp yeast
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tsp sugar
- ½ cup shortening
- 1 cup buttermilk If you don’t have buttermilk handy, place 1 tsp vinegar in a measuring cup, fill with milk, and stir
- 2 tbsp warm water
- ½ cup grated cheddar (old works best)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to three hundred and seventy-five degrees.
- Dissolve two teaspoons of sugar into the two table spoons of warm water.
- Sprinkle the one-quarter teaspoon of yeast over the top and let sit in a warm area.
- In a large bowl, sift together the two and one-quarter cups of Bisquick, one-quarter teaspoon of baking soda, and one-quarter teaspoon of salt. Cut the one-half cup of shortening into the flour mixture, using a pastry cutter (I find it just as easy to use a fork) until crumbly.
- Stir one cup of buttermilk and the yeast into the flour mixture along with the one-half cup of grated cheese until combined.(The dough should be sticky).
- Flatten the dough using your hands or roll in between two pieces of parchment paper until desired thickness.
- Cut the dough with a biscuit or cookie cutter and place each one on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake for approximately twelve to fifteen minutes or until golden brown, being careful not to burn the bottoms.
