Ham and Cheese Butter Swim Biscuits Recipe Delight
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced cooked ham
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or cast-iron skillet.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced ham, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the flour mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and melted butter until combined.
- Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently, just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
- Pour the batter into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares or wedges.
💡 Chef's Notes
