Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon + 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 3/4 Teaspoon Salt (Kosher or Table Salt)
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Very Cold
  • 1/4 Cup Fresh Rosemary, Chopped
  • 1 (6 ounce) Log Fresh Goat Cheese, Crumbled
  • 1 Cup + 4 Tablespoons Heavy Cream, Divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside for baking the biscuits.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to combine evenly.
  3. Incorporate Butter: Using a large cheese grater, shred the very cold unsalted butter directly into the dry ingredient mixture. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal texture.
  4. Add Rosemary and Goat Cheese: Stir in the chopped fresh rosemary, then add the crumbled goat cheese to the mixture, combining gently.
  5. Add Cream and Form Dough: Pour in 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons of the heavy cream. Stir with a fork just until a sticky, messy ball forms.
  6. Knead and Shape the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a generously floured surface. Using very floured hands, knead the dough about 6-7 times until it comes together into a smooth ball. Pat the dough ball into a 1-inch thick round.
  7. Cut Biscuits: Use a biscuit cutter to cut as many rounds as possible from the dough. Gather the scraps, re-roll gently, and continue cutting until all dough is used.
  8. Prepare for Baking: Place the biscuit rounds onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of each biscuit with the remaining heavy cream to help them brown beautifully.
  9. Bake: Bake the biscuits for 18-20 minutes or until they turn golden brown and puffed.
  10. Serve: Serve warm, ideally with butter and strawberry jam for a delicious combination. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is very cold for a flaky biscuit texture.
  • Handle the dough gently and avoid overworking it to keep biscuits light and tender.
  • The rosemary can be adjusted to taste if you prefer a milder or stronger herbal flavor.
  • Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container; reheat in the oven to restore crispness.
  • These biscuits pair wonderfully with a variety of spreads or alongside soups and salads.
