Description

These Ham Biscuits are a delightful Southern-style treat that combines tender, flaky dough with a savory surprise inside. The biscuit dough is rich and buttery, providing the perfect vessel for a mixture of minced ham and sharp prepared mustard. As they bake, the filling warms through, creating a delicious contrast of textures: soft, airy bread meets salty, meaty center. They are incredibly easy to make and serve as an excellent appetizer, brunch item, or hearty lunch. The addition of mustard cuts through the richness of the ham, balancing the flavors perfectly. Whether served hot from the oven or reheated later, these biscuits bring a comforting, homemade taste to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450&# 194;°F (230ðC).
  2. In a small bowl, combine minced ham and prepared mustard; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Add milk gradually, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  6. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly 5-6 times.
  7. Pat dough into a sheet about 1/2 inch thick.
  8. Cut out rounds using a floured biscuit cutter.
  9. Place half of the biscuit rounds in a well-oiled baking pan.
  10. Brush the bottom rounds with melted butter.
  11. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the ham-mustard mixture onto each bottom round.
  12. Top with the remaining biscuit rounds, pinching edges slightly to seal.
  13. Brush tops with milk.
  14. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
