Ingredients
- 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour (plus some for rolling out dough)
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- ½ tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 stick (¼ pound) cold unsalted butter, cut in pieces
- 1 cup buttermilk + 2 tablespoons for brushing tops
- ½ cup Frigo® Ricotta Cheese
- 1 cup Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
Directions
- Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425°F.
- Sift all the dry ingredients into a large bowl and whisk them together.
- With a pastry blender or your fingertips, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. There may be some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
- Gently stir in the 1 cup of buttermilk and the Frigo® Ricotta Cheese until the dough just holds together with no large, dry lumps. The dough will appear to be a shaggy mess. At this time, gently fold in the Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a ½-inch thick rectangle and fold it into thirds. Turn the dough 90 degrees and roll it out to a ½-inch thick rectangle again. Repeat this process 4 times. Then cut 3-inch biscuits with a biscuit cutter or the edge of a drinking glass.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease the baking sheet with shortening or cooking spray. Place the biscuits on the baking sheet, leaving at least ½ an inch in between.
- Brush the tops with the buttermilk. Bake until the tops and bottoms are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through, about 20 minutes. Let them rest for 1 minute and then transfer them to a wire rack.
- Enjoy while they’re warm with dinner or bake them into a Creamy Chicken One-Pot Pie!
- Rad Tip: Don’t have buttermilk? Make your own! Whisk 1 cup of milk with1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes, until thickened slightly, and voila! You have buttermilk!
