Ham Biscuits Recipe

Prep: 30 min. Bake: 15 min.

Yield: 10 Servings

30 15 45

Ingredients

1 cup cubed fully cooked ham
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon each onion powder, garlic powder and ground mustard
3 tablespoons shortening
1 teaspoon minced chives
6 tablespoons buttermilk
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Directions

In a food processor, process ham until ground; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, onion powder, garlic powder and mustard. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly. Fold in ham and chives. Add buttermilk; stir just until the dough clings together.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10-12 times. Roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 450° for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with butter. Serve warm. Yield: 10 biscuits.
