Bacon Cheddar Biscuits With Maple Chipotle Butter Recipe 465 Food

MAPLE BACON CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat; transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. In a large bowl, combine bacon, flour, cheese, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture. In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk and 4 tablespoons maple syrup. Add to the flour mixture and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 12 rounds using a 2 to 2 1/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet; place in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove biscuits from freezer. Place into oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup and butter. Serve biscuits warm, brushed with the maple-butter mixture.

CHEDDAR AND BACON BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat with vegetable oil.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender, or use 2 knives, until the butter is the size of peas; stir in the cheese and bacon.
• Combine the buttermilk and egg in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture just until incorporated. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and pat or roll the dough to 3/4-inch thickness; cut with a 3-inch round cutter, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.

QUICK BACON-CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, paprika, and onion powder. Mix to blend then make a well in the center of the bowl and add the milk, butter, bacon and cheese. Mix gently with a wooden spoon. The dough will be wet and sticky. Using a 1/4 cup measure or ice cream scoop, portion the batter onto a baking sheet, leaving an inch or so around each biscuit.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with a splash of water and then brush this mixture on the top of each biscuit. Bake in the oven until the biscuits are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of one comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes.

GRILLED MAPLE-CHIPOTLE BACON

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Combine maple syrup and chipotle powder in a small bowl.
• Place a disposable aluminum pan on the upper rack of your grill or over one burner on indirect heat.
• Place bacon strips directly on the hot grate and reduce heat to low. Grill bacon, turning frequently, until evenly browned and crisped to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer cooked bacon to the prepared pan to keep warm.
• Return all cooked strips to grill and brush with maple-chipotle glaze on both sides and cook for 1 minute more. Serve immediately.

MAPLE-BACON BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a nonstick baking sheet.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter to cut cold butter into flour mixture, until you see small, pea-sized pieces of butter throughout the dough. Add milk, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and egg and mix just until the ingredients are combined; do not overmix. Dough will be sticky with visible pieces of butter.
• Turn dough out onto generously floured surface and sprinkle bacon pieces on top. Gently knead dough 10 to 15 times to incorporate bacon, sprinkling with additional flour if the dough is super sticky.
• Pat the dough out to a 3/4- to 1-inch thickness and cut with a biscuit cutter or glass. Transfer biscuits to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush the tops with melted butter and remaining maple syrup for extra depth.

BACON, CHEDDAR AND CHIVE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp and brown. Transfer to paper towels and drain. Chop and set aside.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl.
• Using a food processor, pastry cutter, or fingertips incorporate the chilled butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the Cheddar cheese, fresh chives, and cooked bacon. Mix to distribute the ingredients evenly.
• Add the buttermilk and stir just until moistened. Using 1/2 cup dough for each biscuit and using a cup measure or an ice cream scoop, drop the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the mounds about 2-inches apart.
• Bake until the biscuits are golden brown on top, about 15 to 20 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Serve the biscuits warm with melted butter.

BACON-CHEESE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels and reserve 2 tablespoons drippings. Finely chop the bacon.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, chopped bacon and chives in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it is in pea-size pieces. Stir in the cheese with a wooden spoon. Add the buttermilk and reserved bacon drippings and gently mix until just moistened. The dough will be loose.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3 to 5 times, just until it comes together. (Don't overknead or the biscuits will be tough.) Roll out to 1/2 inch thick, then cut out biscuits using a floured 2-inch-round cutter. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet. Reroll the scraps and cut out more biscuits. Brush the tops with melted butter.
• Bake the biscuits until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

BACON & CHEDDAR BISCUITS WITH MAPLE CHIPOTLE BUTTER RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• To make the butter: In a mixer, whip the butter until creamy. Add the maple syrup and chipotle chili and whip until blended. Taste, and adjust the maple syrup to chili ratio to your liking. We like just enough chipotle powder where you taste a subtle heat in the back of your throat, but we don't want to breathe fire! TIP: You can spread the butter into a strip of plastic write then roll into a log, then chill. You can slice what you want, or even freeze it for later. For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425°. Slice the bacon into thin "lardons" and cook until just crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel and cool. Once cool, chop into small pieces. Shred the cheese and set aside. Place the flour in a bowl. Work in the butter or shortening just until crumbs are the size of large peas. TIP: I prefer to use frozen butter (or chilled) and to grate the butter. This make blending the butter into the flour, very easy to do. Add 2/3 cup of the milk or buttermilk, and stir until the mixture holds together and leaves the sides of the bowl, adding more milk or buttermilk if needed. Scoop the dough onto a well-floured surface, and fold it over on itself several times, using more flour as needed to prevent sticking. NOTE: Don't knead the dough, just fold it over on itself to create tender layers. Roll or pat the dough into a 5" x 8 1/2" rectangle about 1/2" to 3/4" thick. Cut biscuits with a sharp, round 2" cutter, dipping the cutter into flour between cuts to reduce sticking. Or cut the rectangle into 12 small rectangular biscuits, which will allow you to skip the step of re-rolling and cutting scraps. If you've used a round cutter, pat the scraps together, and cut additional biscuits. 8) Place the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet (I place mine on parchment paper), leaving about 1" between them for crisp biscuits. Arrange biscuits so they're barely touching for soft-side biscuits. For higher-rising soft-side biscuits, place biscuits in an 8" round pan. 9) Bake the biscuits for 10 to 14 minutes, or until they're a light golden brown. 10) Remove them from the oven, and serve hot. Cool leftovers completely, wrap airtight, and store at room temperature for several days; freeze for longer storage. To refresh room-temperature biscuits, place on a baking sheet, tent lightly with foil, and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 10 to 13 minutes, until heated through. Yield: about 1 dozen 2" biscuits.

SHEET PAN BISCUITS WITH BACON, CHEDDAR & HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Add bacon to a medium skillet and place over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until bacon is crispy and fat is rendered, about 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Brush a 9" x 13" quarter sheet pan with bacon fat from the skillet and line with parchment paper. Brush parchment with additional bacon fat and set aside. Reserve remaining bacon fat.
• In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cayenne, and salt. Add butter and using a pastry blender or two knifes, cut butter into flour until butter is pea-sized. Using your hands, begin to work the mixture with the tips of your fingers, breaking up the butter into smaller pieces and incorporating the flour until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cheddar, chives, thyme, and bacon and mix to distribute.
• Combine buttermilk, 1 tablespoon reserved bacon fat, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix until just incorporated. Turn mixture out on a lightly floured surface and knead 2-3 times until dough sticks together. Do not overwork.
• Pat into a 7" x 11" rectangle, about 1" thick, using flour under surface to prevent sticking as necessary. Using a floured knife, cut into 12 squares, three by four. Transfer to prepared sheet pan, spacing squares closely together but not touching.
• Combine 1 tablespoon reserved bacon fat with remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Brush tops with mixture and sprinkle with Maldon salt and black pepper. Transfer to oven and bake until tops are golden brown and biscuits are just baked through, about 25-30 minutes. Tent with foil during baking if tops are too brown. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

CHEDDAR, BACON, AND FRESH CHIVE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Position rack just above center of oven and preheat to 425°F. Line heavy large baking sheet with parchment paper. Cook bacon in heavy large skillet over medium heat until crisp and brown. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, then chop coarsely.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in processor; blend 5 seconds. Add butter cubes. Blend until coarse meal forms, about 30 seconds. Transfer flour mixture to large bowl. Add cheddar cheese, fresh chives, and chopped bacon; toss to blend. Gradually add buttermilk, stirring to moisten evenly (batter will feel sticky).
• Using lightly floured hands, drop generous 1/2 cup batter for each biscuit onto prepared baking sheet, spacing batter mounds about 2 inches apart.
• Bake biscuits until golden and tester inserted into center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Brush biscuits lightly with melted butter. Let cool 10 minutes. Serve biscuits warm or at room temperature with honey, if desired.
