Before immersing yourself in the art of biscuit baking, it is essential to preheat your oven to the right temperature—this is a crucial step that should never be overlooked. Preheating not only ensures that your biscuits bake evenly but also helps them rise properly, creating that wonderfully fluffy texture we all crave. For this Buttery Corn and Cheddar Biscuit Bake, set your oven to 400°F (200°C). This temperature is perfect for creating a golden crust while ensuring the inside remains moist and tender.

Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup sweet corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

1/4 cup chives, finely chopped (optional)

1 cup buttermilk

2 tablespoons honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper.

      Cut in the Butter: Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

        Add Cheese and Corn: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, corn kernels, and chopped chives (if using) to the flour mixture until evenly distributed.

          Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the buttermilk and honey until well combined.

            Combine Mixtures: Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix, as it can lead to tough biscuits.

              Transfer to Baking Dish: Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

                  Brush with Butter: Remove from the oven and immediately brush the top with melted butter for added richness and flavor.

                    Cool and Serve: Allow the bake to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm as a delightful side dish or a comforting snack!
