Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.75 cup buttermilk
• 0.75 cup sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 2 tablespoons fresh chives (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon rosemary (finely chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 piece egg (beaten, for egg wash)
• 1 tablespoon milk (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, and rosemary until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the buttermilk, gently mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula, until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it 2-3 times to bring it together. Flatten the dough to about 1-inch thickness using your hands.

Step 7

Using a 2.5-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Gently re-roll the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash. Brush the top of each biscuit lightly with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown on top.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy these warm biscuits with butter, or pair them with your favorite soup or gravy!
