PEPPER, GRUYERE, AND SHALLOT BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, black pepper, and kosher salt until well mixed. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse shallot and stir and toss lightly to combine. Stir in the 1 cup buttermilk until the mixture forms a soft, slightly sticky ball. With lightly floured hands, divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Form each portion into a rough ball and place on an ungreased baking sheet, spacing the balls about 1 inch apart. Brush the tops with the 2 tablespoons buttermilk. Bake the biscuits until the tops are light brown, 15 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and serve warm or at room temperature.
