1 tablespoon Essential Everyday baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
12 tablespoons cold Essential Everyday unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 Essential Everyday egg
1 cup Essential Everyday mild cheddar cheese
1/4 cup Essential Everyday clover honey
1 Essential Everyday egg, beaten
1 tablespoon water
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Place the flour, baking powder, and salt into a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the cubed butter and pulse several times, until coarse crumbs form.
  3. Transfer mixture into a large mixing bowl.
  4. In a small mixing bowl combine the egg and buttermilk and whisk to combine. Add buttermilk mixture to the dough and mix only until moistened.
