How to Make Fluffy Cheddar and Herb Biscuits
- In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Use a pastry blender or your fingers to incorporate cold butter until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gently stir in the freshly grated sharp cheddar and chosen herbs.
- Create a well in the center, pour in buttermilk, and gently mix with a spatula until just combined.
- Flatten the dough into a square about 1-inch thick, fold it like a letter, then roll out and cut again.
- Roll or flatten the dough to about ½-inch thick and use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
- Transfer to a lined baking sheet and bake at 425°F for approximately 20 minutes until golden brown.

Notes
For an even richer flavor, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the tops before baking.
