Cheddar Pan Biscuits
1/3c butter
2-1/4c all-purpose flour
4oz (1c) cheddar cheese, shredded
1T baking powder
1T sugar
1tsp dried basil leaves
1/2tsp salt
1c milk
1. Heat oven to 400*. Melt butter in 8″ square baking pan in oven (3-5 minutes).
2. Meanwhile, combine all remaining ingredients except milk in medium bowl. Stir in milk just until moistened.
3. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth (1 minute). Pat or roll dough into 12″x6″ rectangle. Cut into 12 (1″ each) strips.
4. Dip each strip into melted butter in pan; fold each strip in half. Place folded strips in 2 rows in same pan.
(As you can see, I made mine a bit shorter, so I didn’t arrange them in 2 perfect rows.)
Bake for 23-28 minutes
These look great. I think I’ll try them tonight with dinner!
They were wonderful!
