Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Cut in Butter

    Cut the cold unsalted butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Pimentos

    Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and diced pimentos until evenly distributed.

  5. 5

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, combine the milk with the dry ingredients until just moistened. Do not overmix.

  6. 6

    Form Biscuits

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Roll out to about 1-inch thickness. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or glass.

    Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
