Cheddar biscuit
Cheddar biscuits are a type of quick bread made with cheddar cheese. They are a popular breakfast food in the United States, and are often served with eggs, bacon, or sausage.
Cheddar biscuit recipes have been around since the early 19th century. The first known recipe was published in 1824, in The Virginia Housewife, by Mary Randolph. Randolph’s recipe called for grated cheese, flour, butter, salt, and pepper.
Over the years, cheddar biscuits have evolved, with cooks adding different ingredients to create their own unique versions. Common additions include buttermilk, garlic, green onions, and cayenne pepper. Some recipes call for self-rising flour, while others use all-purpose flour.
