Salami and Scallion Biscuits image

These rich, savory biscuits are even better than the traditional ham and cheese variety. Bits of chopped salami and scallions are scattered throughout tender dough that's been enriched with heavy cream. Did we mention that they come together - start to finish - in about 45 minutes? They'll be gone in about five.

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 10 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for flouring surface
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and chilled, plus softened butter for brushing
1/4 cup chopped salami such as soppressata
2 tablespoons chopped scallions
3/4 cup heavy cream, more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Using a pastry cutter, cut cold butter into dry ingredients. Add soppressata and scallions and combine gently. Add cream and mix, preferably with your hands, until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 to 5 turns, just until dough comes together. If dough is dry and crumbly, add more cream as needed. Gently pat dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out 6 to 8 biscuits. Press scraps together and cut out another 2 to 4 biscuits.
  • Transfer biscuits to a baking sheet and brush generously with softened butter. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until biscuits are lightly browned.
