Preparation
Step 1
1. Heat oven to 375.
2. Sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add cheddar. Add butter, cut in until it resembles coarse cornmeal.
3. Whisk together eggs and buttermilk 30 seconds. Pour over flour, stir with a spoon until just combined. The dough should be fairly stiff. Drop 6 big spoonfuls of batter onto parchment-lined sheet, leaving as much space as possible in between for spreading.
4. Bake 30 mins, until golden brown and tester comes out clean.
Notes: Delicious! Really shaped like drop biscuits with a biscuit flavor, would definitely make again. Would also be good with the addition of herbs - dill, basil, etc. Delicious with the fish chowder. Used lowfat cheddar cheese and eggbeaters.
