Cheddar-Scallion Drop Biscuits

These rustic Cheddar-scallion biscuits are perfect to serve alongside soup on a cold day. I find that these biscuits are better when they are cooled slightly than straight out of the oven.

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, garlic powder, mustard powder, pepper, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix in Cheddar cheese and scallions. Stir in yogurt and milk.

Step 3
