Cheesy Einkorn Biscuits Recipe

Prepared by Sarah Shilhavy Photo by Jeremiah Shilhavy

Servings: approx. 1 dozen biscuits
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

• 1 1/2 cups
  all purpose einkorn flour
  
• 1 cup whole wheat einkorn flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup cold
  palm shortening,
  butter or
  coconut oil
  
• 1 cup whole milk or coconut milk*
• 2 cups shredded cheese of choice (cheddar is recommended)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees ºF.

Whisk flours, baking powder, sugar and salt together in a bowl. Cut in shortening or butter until pieces are no smaller than pea-sized. Lightly mix cheese in.

Make a well and pour milk in. Stir a few times with a rubber spatula just until the flour is mostly moistened. It is very crucial not to over-mix. Turn dough out onto a well floured surface and knead 8-12 times. Pat dough out to approximately 1 inch thickness (or desired thickness) and cut with a biscuit cutter.

Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 12-15 minutes, or until bottoms and edges are golden brown.

* For the freshest coconut milk make
homemade coconut milk. (See video at this
