Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder until well combined.
-
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green chilies, and fresh cilantro until evenly distributed.
-
Slowly pour in the buttermilk and mix until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Use a biscuit cutter or a round glass to cut out biscuits.
-
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the beaten egg wash.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
-
Optional: sprinkle the freshly baked biscuits with additional shredded cheddar cheese and chopped cilantro before serving.
