Green Onion Goat Cheese Biscuits

Prep Time: 25 mins | Cook Time: 20 min | Course: Dinner | Serves: 16

Green onion and goat cheese biscuits topped with flaky salt are amazing straight out of the oven while still warm. Spread with a little whipped goat cheese butter if you’re feeling a little extra decadent. Inspired by Ashley Manila of Baker by Nature https://bakerbynature.com/rosemary-goat-cheese-biscuits/

2 cups flour 

1 Tbsp baking powder 

1 Tbsp sugar 

1 tsp salt 

½ tsp freshly ground black pepper 

2 Tbsp green onions, minced

¼ cup cold butter, cubed 

1 8-oz log goat cheese, crumbled 

1 cup heavy cream + more for brushing 

Flaky salt for topping 

Goat Cheese Whipped Butter:

½ cup butter, softened 

2 oz goat cheese 

Preheat the oven to 400°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or a silpat, setting it to one side.

In a food processor, measure flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper; pulse to combine. Add green onions, butter, goat cheese, and heavy cream. Pulse a few times until the dough just begins to come together ( I wanted the goat cheese to have chunks in the biscuits). Transfer to a lightly floured rolling surface. Using a bench scraper, fold the dough over itself a few times, shaping it into a rectangle about 1” thick. Use a rolling pin to flatten the top as needed. Use a pizza roller to cut into square biscuits (or a round cookie cutter to make round biscuits), and reroll scraps as needed. Place biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and brush with a little heavy cream. Sprinkle with a bit of flaky salt, then bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. 

Mix the butter and goat cheese as a delicious spread for the warm biscuits straight out of the oven.
