  • measuring spoons

Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons Land O'Lakes® Unsalted Butter
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

  • 2 tablespoons mild diced green chiles
  • 1/2 cup cooked crumbled bacon pieces
  • 1/4 cup  Land O Lakes® Butter with Canola Oil plus more for spreading
  • 2 tablespoons milk diced green chiles

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with a silpat liner or parchment paper.
  • Place butter in a medium heat proof mixing bowl and microwave until melted, about 60 seconds. Slowly whisk in buttermilk to combine.
  • Place flour, baking powder, salt and garlic salt into a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine then slowly fold in butter/buttermilk until just combined. Fold in cheese, bacon pieces and green chiles to combine as well.
  • With a large cookie scoop or 1/3 measuring cup, place biscuit dough onto your prepared baking sheet at least 1 inch apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until puffed and cooked through. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes before handling.
  • Place Land O Lakes Spreadable Butter with Canola Oil and green chiles into a medium mixing bowl. Stir until well combined then use for spreading on insides of warm split rolls.

Notes

  • Use Good Ingredients. Since biscuits don't have many ingredients, make sure your basics are all good quality.
  • Be Gentle. Stir and fold ingredients gently to avoid over mixing which causes texture issues.
  • Substitutions. Biscuits are fun to play around with ingredient additions. Use your favorite cheeses, add some finely chopped vegetables to get some different flavors.
