Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Liquid Ingredients

    Stir in the milk, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese until just combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass.

  6. 6

    Prepare for Baking

    Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.

  7. 7

    Bake

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

  8. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm.
