Preparation

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, salt, baking powder, baking sode and pepper and stir to combine.

Using a box grater, grate the butter into the dry mixture.

Add the chopped bacon and cheddar cheese.

Then place the entire bowl into the freezer for a few minutes just to keep the butter cold and chill the dry ingredients.

After about 10 minutes, remove the bowl from the freezer and add in the buttermilk. Carefully stir the mixture until everything comes together.

Place the entire baking sheet into the fridge and chill for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 450? F.

Place the baking sheet in the hot oven and bake until the biscuits are lightly golden brown, about 15-18 minutes. Serve warm! And with maple butter if you have some or can buy some.
