CHEESY GARLIC HAM BISCUITS
Cheesy garlic ham biscuits are delicious!
There must be a thousand or more ways to make biscuits and I would probably like them all! I love biscuits. A good Southern buttermilk biscuit with gravy just can’t be beat in my book. These ham biscuits are a great way to use up ham and so good for breakfast with coffee or just as a snack.
Cheesy Garlic Ham Biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 stick butter or margarine, cut in pieces
1 1/2 cups ham, cooked and chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or can use cheese of your choice. (I use several different cheeses blended sometimes)
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
Mix flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder with a whisk. Cut the butter pieces into the flour mixture until looks like coarse crumbs. Add ham, cheese and milk. Mix with spoon and turn out onto floured board. I don’t roll this out. I just pat the dough out with my hands to desired thickness. I used a small cookie cutter, too, instead of a regular biscuit cutter. Baked on a sprayed cookie sheet in a preheated 425 degree oven until brown on top or 15 to 20 minutes.  Makes about 2 1/2 dozen small biscuits. Serve with honey, preserves, molasses, etc.
