About the Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups Self Rising Flour


¼ tsp Baking Soda


7 tbsp Cold Butter, cut into pieces


¾ cup Buttermilk, plus additional for bushing


½ cup Shredded Irish Cheddar Cheese, plus more for topping


¼ cup sliced Green Onions

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.


Step 2

In large bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda.


Step 3

Cut butter into flour mixture with a fork or pastry blender until texture resembles coarse crumbs.


Step 4

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, pour in buttermilk. Stir with fork just until mixture starts to come together to form semi-solid dough.


Step 5

Transfer dough to a floured work surface and press into a rectangle. Fold into thirds using a dough scraper. Press again into a rectangle. (Flour work surface again if dough seems sticky)


Step 6

Sprinkle half the cheese and half the green onions on the dough. Fold dough into thirds again. Dust with flour if necessary and roll out again to about 1/2" thick.


Step 7

Top with remaining cheese and green onions. Fold one last time into thirds to about 1/2" rectangle. Cut out biscuits with a 2 1/2" biscuit cutter.


Step 8

Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Brush lightly with buttermilk and sprinkle tops with cheddar cheese.


Step 9

Bake at 400°F for 15-18 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown.


Step 10

Transfer to wire rack to cool. Enjoy.
