Roasted Apple & Bacon Cheddar Biscuits

January 14, 2016

These puffy cream cheese biscuits are taken to a new level with the addition of roasted apples, crispy bacon, and extra sharp cheddar cheese.

1 (12 oz) package (or 12 slices) bacon
8 oz extra sharp cheddar cheese (shredded or block)
2 medium sized apples (I used Honeycrisp, but Granny Smith would work well too)
1 1/2 C. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 C. cake flour
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt (I used sea salt)
3/4 tsp. baking soda
4 oz cream cheese, cut into small chunks (about 1/2\")
4 tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into small chunks (about 1/2\")
1 C. + 1 tbsp. buttermilk (I used full fat, it\'s so thick and creamy!)

Topping (optional)

2 tbsp. unsalted butter
1 tbsp. honey

Prep Freeze butter and cream cheese for 30 min. Preheat oven to 375° f. Line a baking sheet (preferably one with sides as opposed to a completely flat one) with foil or parchment paper. Place slices...
