Green Chile Cheddar Biscuits
2 cups flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
5 Tbsp. cold butter, diced
1 cup cold buttermilk
1 cup cheddar cheese, finely shredded
1/3 cup Santa Fe Ole Hatch Green Chile, rinsed and drained
1/2 tsp. white pepper
additional shredded cheddar for the top of biscuits
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, pepper and salt with a whisk.
Add the butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter to get coarse crumbs.
Add buttermilk until just combined. Add cheese and green chile and mix until just incorporated.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the top.
Knead the dough 5-6 times and pat into a 1/2-inch-thick circle.
Use a 2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut and place on parchment paper 1 inch apart.
Rework the dough scraps, shape again, and cut more circles.
Sprinkle about a teaspoon of shredded cheese on top of biscuits.
Bake 15-18 minutes until raised and golden brown.
